According to the Wikipedia article on Pretenders, found by using the link below, just about every royal family in Europe is descended from Byzantine emperors, as are many families of nobility, and a number of common families. Figuring out which person is best claimant would probably be a bit of a problem, partly because there are too many, partly because records are imperfect, and partly because many people would not really care enough to act on the idea.
