Your welcome for the names. Seaching them out was the least I could do since you gave us all the generally idea of what's going on in each chapter. I can only rely on the unrelialbe machine translations, and it's a headache trying to read full chapters' worth of them. It's for this reason that I'm unsure of the "demise" in "Demise Girl" because putting デイマイズ in the translator just gives the rendering Deimaizu. In all honestly, I was tempted to translated that last two kana as "ice" but the sound would be off and there's nothing I could think of for the first three that I felt would work at the time. (However, I just realized, perhaps it could be "dame ice" deima izu. However, Dame Ice Girl seems awkward, and I believe it probably should have been deimu isu in that case. Any better ideas would be welcome.)

Oh, and just a note on Samejima's nickname: it's derived from the first kanji of his last name, which means shark.

As for Lavinia possibly being Walburga, it's an interesting idea. I mean, her sacred gear may not have awakened yet, and as you said, it would further complete the story as a HSDxD prequel. Jop's reservations could just be her not showing her true strength, or something along those lines, mind you. (Oh, and Azazel might very well be aware of sleeping Longinus, and was simply waiting for it to awaken or something) But still, I don't know...

Also, I was the anon that originally contributed the info about the Five Families. The info said that the previous "Himejima Suzaku" was considered the strongest. I can't help but wonder whether that was Akeno's great uncle. Of course, I also wonder what Ikuse's age is compared to hers and what exactly their familial relationship is (i.e. what form of cousin). Alas, we may never learn the answer, depending on Ishibumi-sensei.
