What names do you love that you can't or won't consider because it just doesn't work with your last name?

For me it's:
Alice
Lucy
Sylvia

Silas
Simon
Jonas

My last name is 2 syllables that starts and ends in S.
I'm sure I can't be the only one with a list of loved, but unuseable names!

Anything ending in -er or beginning/ending with R. Our last name is Raeder and that nixed my favorite name Ryder. Also, it kicked out Cooper, Parker, Walker, and my favorite family name Remington. For girls, Claire had to leave. Also, any name where the R is in the last syllable at the end of the name had to go, like Kara Raeder or Mara Raeder. Although, Marina Raeder is tolerable because the R is 2 syllables away from the end. Also, Rachel and Raven don't work because of the rae-rae repeat sound. Yeah, there are a lot of things that don't work with my husband's last name.
