Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello, Romeo and Juliet, Antony and Cleopatra, Troilus and Cressida, Coriolanus, Timon of Athens, Richard III, Richard II, Henry V, Titus Andronicus, King Lear, King John, Henry VIII, Pericles.

It is debatable whether Julius Caesar is the central character in the play named for him, and the same can be said for the two parts of Henry IV, the three parts of Henry VI, and definitely Cymbeline. The Merry Wives of Windsor are indeed the central characters of their play, but the title is not their names. I guess Shakespeare thought it was a snappier title than Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Page.
