Sure, though I don't think they are necessarily German, French etc. either. Though one guess is as good as the other so I'll desist on it until we get more evidence from official sources.

About Lewes, perhaps Tappei was not actually basing her name on something European. I'm no expert on the matter, but from searching, I've found that the Japanese Wikipedia  seems to romanise the word "Lewes" as ルイス (so same word like Lewis would be). Not saying that specifically proves anything, of course, since these things aren't 1:1 maps that can be reversed like so, but I'm giving him the possibility of the benefit of the doubt. I know Tappei & Co. aren't always perfect when it comes to changing things to the English language. For example, Carmilla is meant to be a reference to the one from mythology, and the asteroid, right? From my research said mythological figure and asteroid are called "Camilla" instead of Carmilla.

Edit: Which means his way of spelling it as カーミラ is either a mistake, or perhaps some plot point or whatnot. Either way I think that's the only one of the 6 Witches that has a deviation in what it's meant to reference.
