Darnassus's guild house has members who give quests that lead you to Blackfathom deeps.

Gelkis and Magram Centaurs:

Hydraxian Waterlords:
Located in Azshara, any mob kills in Molten Core seem to increase reputation with them.

Ravenholdt:
An assassin guild opposed to the Syndicate. Seems like it might only be possible for a rogue to gain Reputation with them. Their headquarters are located in Arathi Highlands, but to get there you have to come from the northeast corner of Hillsbrad. The only way found (so far) to raise reputation is to turn in pick-pocketed Syndicate Emblems (usually 25 - 35, depending on your level). So far there is no way to get above Friendly, and no reward for obtaining Friendly.
Shen'dralar:
New Faction related to Dire Maul in some way.
Syndicate:
Syndicate are a shadowy group that doesn't seem to have any friends. Despite having a strong presence in Hillsbrad, Arathi, and Alterac, none of those NPC kills in those zones cause you to lose reputation with them.
