Liddell (as in Alice, Edith, Lorina, Violet, and Rhoda Liddell; Alice being the inspiration for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the rest being her sisters)

Carroll (the pseudonym used when publishing Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)

Dodgson (Carroll's real surname)

Hargreaves (the last name of the man Alice Liddell married)

Reeves (Alice's mother's maiden name, I think)

Some others I like: Nightingale, Winter, Riddle, Lace, Lingley, Elkins, Fiddler, Lockhart, March, Thorn

And then of course there's the surnames of Victorian serial killers: Cotton, Chapman, Holmes, Dyer, Cream, Wilson, Philipe, etc.

and of course people take surnames for their profession, like Smith, Sander, Baker, Fisher, Tucker, etc; and then people added the suffix -son to a name which gave us names like Wilson, Watson, Robinson, Johnson, etc. all of those would be present in the Victorian era.
