Last name for Character Family
I don't know if this is a good place to ask for suggestions about last names for a character, but I'll try. I have a family in my multiple book series and I need a last name for them. They live in the Renaissance times, but I plan to make different books last longer. I need a catchy last name, but not too long or short. The book series is going to be called House of ______. Your help is really appreciated! Thanks!

In 1572 in Paris there was the St Bartholomews Day massacre. A lot of French Huguenots fled to Britain. Depending on when during the renaissance your book is set it is not inconceivable that your family may have a French last name.

Try House of Bodley! The place where I got it from is weird, but I think it's British.
Which country?
England
