I'm not really a DoctorRose shipper, but here's a very unlikely but still technically possible thought:
If, per The Legend of Ruby Sunday, Susan really is the daughter of a future child of the Doctor...
...and her original name really is "Arkytior", ie. the Gallifreyan equivalent of "Rose"...
...there's an argument to be made that, like Rose Temple-Noble (ironically, herself arguably a relative of the Doctor in a roundabout way, via the metacrisis), Susan might have been originally named after Rose Tyler.
