With the ln Bruce I would eliminate anything with a strong B sound ie. Arabella Bruce/Shelby Bruce which run together. I would avoid anything that feels very 'exotic' or 'ethnic' ie. Anastasia Bruce seems odd to me. Also anything short feels choppy ie. Rose Bruce.

Skimming over your list these jumped out at me as flowing well with ln Bruce:

Amelia Bruce
Caroline Bruce
Catherine Bruce
Daphne Bruce
Haley Bruce
Jillian Bruce

Colin Bruce
Elliott Bruce
Nolan Bruce
Samuel Bruce
Wesley Bruce
William Bruce
