This theory makes sense, and it sure is interesting, but I doubt that's what Aaronovitch will go for. For one thing, there's Varvara Sidorovna (it would be cool if she'd turn out to be Zelenograd or Moscow or some other Russian city, though); and then Peter has been able to recognize all the genii locorum he's encountered - why would Nightingale be an exception? It is possible - very likely, even - that gods/goddesses are able to hide their true nature, but why would Nightingale do this?
And wouldn't the Covent Garden affair piss the hell out of him, if he's indeed London? Genii locorum have been shown to be very sensitive to what's going on in their locations.
Though of course it might be that all of the above applies to rivers but not to cities.

I can come up with handwaves! For Varvara, she's Mother Russia! For the Covent Garden riot Nightingale was kinda busy being nearly dead from being shot (and we know from Ash Thames that Anthro...APs, can be hurt and even die which was one of the things Tyburn was kinda pissed about) by the time he was back on his feet it was all over bar the clear up.

Finally, Peter does know there is something odd about Nightingale but is busy marking all Nightingale's weirdness up to him being (a) old, and (b) a master wizard. At times, despite his sterling talents, we've seen that Peter can be a bit slow to put 2+2 together and let the penny drop especially when it is something he has already formed an opinion on. Its probably why he was set for a grade A career as a police filing clerk (one of the things I like about Peter is that he isn't the standard policeman in fiction who always seem to be a mere hair's breadth away from being Sherlock Holmes/Hercule Poirot reincarnated, he can be a bit thick).
