I don't see any problems with this. Certainly not with his dialogue. How many times do you use your own name when speaking?

This has been done. The Edgar-Winning The Butcher's Boy by Thomas Perry has a nameless character as one of the two only important characters.
I believe that the heros of the books Donald Westlake wrote as "Richard Stark" is nameless.
