Hmmmm I seem to notice quite a few other out of place choices rather. The Hound and the Mountain are two. Also Hodor and Varys. All of them are played by actors with quite a different racial background to what I pictured
.
I thought Varys was described as being pretty damn pale and powdery looking. Gregor and Sandor are both knights of the westerlands and are therefore no darker than the Lannisters or even the Tyrells. The stormlords, dornishmen and lords of the dornish marches I pictured to be darker though. Houses like Dondarrion and even Tarly.
Also Hodor has giant blood in him supposedly and I guess we can expect that the blood in him that isn't giant is northern and I always imagined the northerners to have a very pale complexion.
You haven't mentioned a Littlefinger yet but I thought Gary Oldman would suit that role better than he would Davos.
