"Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." was the pseudonym of Washington Irving.

Irving published The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. in 1819-20. It contains his best-known tales, 'Rip Van Winkle' and 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow', together with essays on English life, and it made him the first American writer to win international fame. He also used the pen names Diedrich Knickerbocker and Jonathan Oldstyle.

Mark Twain was itself the pen name of Samuel Clemens, while Cooper and Bryant published under their own names.
