Surname for a wizard?

First Post
I'm currently trying to come up with a surname for my wizard, his first name will be Edmund, having a hard time coming up with something that sounds good in combination with Edmund and was hoping for some inspirational suggestions.
I tried out these names but they didn't feel quite right;
Blackmore.
Grimstone.
Barkwith.
Applefield.
Grimshaw.
Silverheart.
Evergreen.

Blackadder!

Seriously though Edmund is not very fantasy to me, unless you're looking for some kind of low fantasy GRR Martin type sounding name...what kind of wizard is Edmund (Necromancer, Conjurer etc) and race. That might help.
 


Edmund is a human conjurer. I picked the name Edmund since it had a nice ring too it, and you don't see alot of wizards named Edmund.

Edmund is my uncle's first name. He's a chiropractor. I guess that doesn't help.

I'll put my thinking cap on for this one and try to post later.

Thanks,

Ofcourse I am not bound by the name Edmund, I can be flexible if I must. I'm just a perfectionist and I must have a name that is just perfect for me or I won't enjoy the character.
 

Edmund Taratar - not so european
Edmund Orson - pretty european
Edmund Green - downright English
Edmund Piaccio - yeah you see where this is going and it doesn't make a lot of sense
Edmund De Verrasi - little more bizarre
Edmund Emmot - alliteration

Sir Edmund Winterbottom VI - ridiculous
Edmund the Red - classic self-important titling
Edmund the Goddamned Badass - awesome self-important titling
Edmund Starseeker - horrible fantasy whimsy
Edmynd Aelfwynd - wyccan ridyculous
Edmund Darkblood - vamphthire

Edmund Skub - I am pro-skub
 


Well, Edmund is an English name. So...looking through my English surnames list for the ones I like:

Ackland
Barclay
Griswold
Bristow
Chickering
Foss
Godolphin
Kennicot
Skeffington
Wickliff

I kind of like Griswold. Griswold the Gray, Griswold the Grim, or Griswold the Wise kind of rolls off the tongue.
