Oh spiffy - very interesting essay - thanks.
Of the very few that came to mind, one is in your essay (A Nameless Witch[1]), and one is in the comments (Zelazny's My Name is Legion).
The other definite one that came to mind is Annihilation[2] by Jeff Vandermeer.
Did the protagonist in Delany's _Babel-17_ have a name? As I recall it, he
didn't even have the concept of "I".
