Here's my list

Barbarian = Shaman
Dwarf = Cleric
Dark Elf = Necromancer
Erudite = Wizard
Gnome = Magician
Halfling = Rogue
Half-Elf = Bard
High Elf = Enchanter
Iksar = Monk
Human = Paladin/Ranger
Ogre = Warrior
Troll = Shadow Knight
Wood Elf = Druid

I did a thread like this many years ago and this is exactly how I feel as well. Dwarf Cleric is the one that ends up feeling most incorrect, that race is definitely more melee based, but Human ultimately feels like a better choice for Paladin (I don't first think of short people when that class comes to mind in a traditional RPG sense), so Dwarves are basically just left with Cleric in this fun little theoretical.

HOWEVER, if you add in "Berserker" as a class choice, then you can give that to Ogres and give Warrior to Dwarves, which makes everything feel great. Oh, and then also shove Clerics into the Human category. That vanilla class deserves such a vanilla race.
