This might help...
 
Change who's saved & suggested as contacts
 
Sign in to Google Contacts.
On the left, select Other contacts.
Click or tap a contact.
From here you can:
Change info: On the top right, select Add to contacts . Make the changes you want. At the bottom, select Save.
Remove a contact: On the top right, select More   Delete. To stop them from getting added back, follow the steps to stop saving automatically.
 
If that doesn't work, you might try Blocking them, but this seems a bit extreme (and actually may not work, I don't have a way to test it): https://support.google.com/photos/answer/7066109
