Keep Tyrannus here human (for ye olde traditional feel) or go Void elf (racials feel like a better mesh and can justify the Entropic Embrace as Death Knight empowerment) plus Void elves have the same Death Knight skins as blood elves and the name of the hairstyles kind of mesh with the whole doom and gloom of Death Knights. So, Tradition or Different?
Alliance I only play Dwarf / Dark Iron or Night Elf.
But now I may consider making a Void Elf Demon Hunter.
For DK? Humans have better racials, imho.
Armor fits better with humans too.

Stick with Human, Void Elves are best (and great) as casters, not melee.

True, though how often do racials make or break a class? Hm. Perhaps you’re right. And Henceforth is also correct that armor looks better on humans (god I wish BLood/Void elves stood up straight and had better melee animations.)
Humans have increased secondary stats. That reflects into defensive and offensive in many ways.
Dwarf has increased 2% increased damage and you have stoneform.
Humans have the best passive racial of all races which scale as your item level and character level goes up.
The Human Spirit: You gain 2% more of all secondary stats (Haste, Critical Strike, Mastery, Versatility) from all sources.

Go Void Elf because WoW human men look goofy.

We Velfs have the best hairstyles in the game, however in your case maybe you’d probably best best to stay a human, since one of our racials which removes delay on casting, will be wasted on you, for the most part. If you don’t mind that, than just go Velf.

Human seems pretty cool.
Void elf I like the aesthetics so I chose them. I have always wondered if our shadowfrost damage also fed the beast.
Unless you play a male, in which case you get like 3 hair styles with any semblance of a proper hairline

This might just be my hot take and bias toward the traditional lore of WoW but.. I really don’t like the 4th generation Death Knights. I think their lore is very uninspired and lazy. “Bolvar raised them.” Okay… neat. And.. does anyone morally object to this? No? Oh, okay.
Humans however are of course the poster child of the Death Knight class. It’s a huge part of their lore. And story aside, Male Humans look good in everything because all armors are designed on their model.
Well, you could argue lore can be flexible if you’re creative. Such as perhaps the “Void Elf” was a third generation raised by Arthas being a corpse from during the siege of Quel’thalas. Instead of going to the Blood elves he went to the Alliance with Thalassian. And using the Undead skin tones this is more believable and as I said Entropic Embrace could be argued that it’s a Death Knight empowerment rather then void.
All up to personal interpretation and creativity.

Why not make a void elf for your warband? 
I mean, if you want hot air blown up your cheeks for a whole expansion play Void elf.
Elf!
Always.
We look so much better than the others.
What weapon type you prefer?
Void elves look great with a scythe pole-arm.
You also can use a fancy wing mog with a cloak as a VE. (just make sure you got a tabard you like laying around)
Neither, Draenei
Won’t lie, I have thought about it. Especially with the decay on male’s face. However I dunno. Too barrel chested for me.
I’d change the name.
Why?
