James Caan played Sonny Corleone. James Caan is also supposed to have been a real Mafia man in real life.
No, the Godfather movies are fictional. The Corleone family was based off the real-life Gambino crime family.
The name of the characters in America is Corleone, but that's because some nice man on Ellis Island mixed it up because young Vito wouldn't/couldn't speak. He was from the town of Coeleone in Sicily. The real last name for the family was Andolini, but not everyone remembers that. Also the name of the other families are Tatalia, Starachi, Barzini and Cuneo
The Godfather (1972) was adapted from the novel by Mario Puzo. Puzo modeled the character of Don Vito Corleone on New York mob bosses Joe Profaci and Vito Genovese. Many of the events of his novel are based on actual incidents that occurred in the lives of Profaci, Genovese and their families. Puzo based Don Vito's personality on his own mother's. However, Don Vito Corleone's son, Michael, is purely fictional.

Marlon Brando played Vito Corleone in "The Godfather" and "The Godfather II." In the movies he is often addressed as "Don Corleone." Don is a title of respect, rather than a name, (it is roughly the Italian equivalent of "Sir") that is often used to address the head of a "family" in the Italian Mafia.
Don Vito Corleone's secret identity is Vito Andolini, his birth name before he took on the title of "Don" as a respected mafia boss in the film "The Godfather."

While the characters in "The Godfather" do not directly represent specific real-life figures, they are often seen as embodying certain archetypes or themes common in organized crime. For example, Don Vito Corleone can be seen as a representation of a powerful mafia boss, while Michael Corleone represents the transformation from a reluctant outsider to a ruthless leader. Sonny represents a hotheaded enforcer, and Tom Hagen embodies the pragmatic consigliere role.
