You're going for the household names I see !
For science I would have to add:
Pythagoras
Whoever invented the wheel
Whoever invented the abacus
Art/Science crossover:
Leonardo Da Vinci
B-List genii : Euler, Hawking, Ramanujan, Aristotle, Archimedes, Alexander The Great, Lennon & McCartney (together), Penrose, Bagwell
BBC radio 4 had a recent poll for the greatest philosopher of all time:

To test your genius, apparently this is the worlds hardest equation to balance
? H2 + ? Ca(CN)2 + ? NaAlF4 + ? FeSO4 + ? MgSiO3 + ? KI + ? H3PO4 + ? PbCrO4 + ? BrCl + ? CF2Cl2 + ? SO2 -> ? PbBr2 + ? CrCl3 + ? MgCO3 + ? KAl(OH)4 + ? Fe(SCN)3 + ? PI3 + ? Na2SiO3 + ? CaF2 + ? H2O
It can be done apparently - what's the answer?
