It depends what you're using it for. if it's for melting the link below gives alternatives. I've also seen recipes where parmesan is used too.

When it is just for melting on a gratin I mostly use anything which I have at home. If it needs to give the dish a certain taste than it is a different matter. I have seen some recipes with Fontina, a cheese I don't know, but I don't think that we have it here in France.
