#1 is St. Stephen Protomartyr Correct. First martyr, stoned to death.
#3 is St. Lawrence Right again. Martyrdom by grilling.
#6... I ought to know that one. St. Bleys? Generally spelt Blaise, but correct. Patron saint of throat, his emblem is two crossed candles.
And St. Sebastian, IIRC, was shot full of arrows Well, yes, but in a Monty-Python-flavored turn of events, he got better. One of those ubiquitous Roman matron Christian converts got to him and nursed him back to health. So no extra credit points.
