Most are coincidences.
I would guess that Devil Devi are actually etymologically related.
Your hypothesis is flawed in that it's not true that a person creates a language.
English has many roots, thus there are a lot of similar-seeming collections of letters that aren't at all related historically (or even hysterically).
When you're working with a limited number of letters, they're going to appear in various arrangements in lots of words.
But, to add to your list:
dog -- god

id say satan and santa definately are more than coincidence. christmas is steeped in pagan- god dishonoring customs and practices. the others i dont know but are interesting. what about Xmas. X being used often in other religions for satanic practices.

Reading between the lines you will find anything you wish to find, without regard to the writers intent.
