Thankyou for posting. My thoughts: the first example is not a GG because if the position is played out with Stockfish following the Knight sac Black is under no pressure to resign quickly or at all. At the time of the Knight sac, the eval bar showed White with an advantage of +3. However, when the position is played out by Stockfish a series of trades ensues but White's advantage doesn't improve. That suggests that the position would lead to an endgame, rather than a quick resignation that is the hallmark of a Godfather Gambit.
However, your amazing Queen sacrifice led to a quick checkmate which is more aligned with a GG. Having said that, Black could have averted that quick checkmate with perfect defense. But, I'm inclined to give that Queen sac GG status based on the surprise factor of the Queen sac plus the followup moves which applied a great amount of pressure and contributed to mistakes by Black resulting in the quick checkmate. Nicely, done. 
These are the best puzzles ever
