Yee!

Henriette Babineaux (Malfoy) is an immigrant, she moved from France where both of her parents attended Beauxbatons, and that's why her family doesn't have any notoriety with the British purebloods. A lot of her friends call her "Hettie" (I'm sure there's a gay joke in there you can make if you want to do some lesbianism), and she speaks both French and English as her first languages, leading to her accent being kind of confusing. I like to imagine Abraxas being a little bit similar to Scorpius in some ways, mostly because I think it's a funny juxtaposition if Tombraxas is evil Scorbus, so I picture Henriette falling for Abraxas because he's not super composed, he's a little too tall and uncoordinated. I don't think abraxas feels any pressure to perform as a perfect pureblood around her, but when Tom started taking things down a darker road he got stressed and took a lot of that out on his family. He was a cold husband and father because of that, and Henriette always told Lucius that things would get better once the war was over. He resents both of them because that wasn't true, and he resents Scorpius for being too unpurebloodly, but also for being too similar to his own parents.

Fiona Bowker (Dolohov) was somewhat like a "mean girl", I imagine she probably called Tom Riddle a mudblood at some point, since it was several years before he figured out who his family was. She has a little brother, Fergus, and his line is the one that eventually results in Craig Bowker Jr., and since Craig isn't really all that respected, even in a universe where Voldemort wins the Jenkins family have more popularity than his, so I imagine Fiona and Fergus having a lot of issues about who she hangs out with and who she marries. Fiona doesn't like the Death-Eaters, but she agrees with her husband Rothbart more than the Order, and Fergus cuts off all contact with her.

Indigo Bulstrode (Mulciber) I don't actually have much lore for, but I do imagine her being a very traditional and appropriate pureblood wife. Like, arranged marriage, docile homemaker, doesn't question her husbands activities, just very indoctrinated into the whole traditional marriage thing.

Dervla Idris (Avery) obviously doesn't come from a particularly pureblood family, she married Edmund Snr. for love, and she was friends with her ancestor Gwydion Idris, who haunts Hogwarts as a teenage ghost, so as much as she doesn't like the Death-Eaters, she really thought she could change his mind though. It's especially awful when her son decides to join as well, despite her protests.

Candace McHavelock (Nott) comes from the McHavelock family, who own a wigs and hats shop, and live in Hogsmeade, so she was quite interested in fashion and cursed fabrics. Her older brother, Irving McHavelock, is the one who opened the shop, and he lets her design some of the hats but she's not allowed to be an official employee. Argentus Nott actually supported her ambitions, and they kept their son away from the Death-Eaters (Nott Snr. is the only one of his family who is a Death-Eater, so I interpret that he didn't want his family to get sucked into it).

Nuha Shafiq (Lestrange) is actually the most fleshed out one. I chose Shafiq because Rabastan has a mispelled Arabic name, and Shafiq was the only Arab pureblood family I knew about at the time, so I picked her. She's actually in Hufflepuff, unlike the rest who are in Slytherin, and she's very sweet. Nuha is the name of a triple goddess with a Sun association, I chose this because I'm a Pandora Lestrange fan and it would mirror Luna Lovegood having a triple goddess with a Moon association as her name. Nuha can get quite jealous, she's a pretty jealous person, but with Corvus Lestrange VI she doesn't really have to worry about that, he only has eyes for her. She has a passion for history and the stars, and I imagine this impacted Pandora's love of alchemy. I also picture Nuha and Rabastan being quite close. I don't think she wanted her family to become Death-Eaters, she definitely helped Pandora escape and remained in contact with the Lovegood's afterwards, but I don't picture her being in much of a position to leave either. Much like how Narcissa was too in love with Lucius to leave despite her own morals surrounding the situation.

Edelweiss Tremblay (Rosier) I imagine somewhat whimsical, although nowhere near the same level of whimsy as like, Luna Lovegood or any of her family. I don't subscribe to the Pandora is a Rosier headcanon, but I did intentionally make Edelweiss blonde and whimsical so that the Evandora siblings fans could use her if they wanted to. The Tremblay family really just appear in the background a lot, they marry into the Lestrange's mutliple times before we even get to Leta, there's Mason Tremblay who was an undiscovered Death-Eater until he went mad and started terrorising muggles, and Harry had to arrest him. So like, Edelweiss might have some of the Tremblay family mental health issues.

As for Druella, she's a canon character that I've given some minor thought to, mostly I think she'd probably be extra close with Edelweiss because they become sisters in law, but I admittedly need to do more research into the Rosier family to really figure her out, because all I know about them is that they're consistently evil.

Also, the ship names I use if you wanted to know:

Henbraxas (Abraxas/Henriette) -- I also think I saw you get an ask calling them Puresilver, but I don't know how much of a thing that is.

Rothiona | Fairowl (Fiona/Rothbart)

Bulciber (Brutus Snr./Indigo)

Idrivery (Dervla/Edmund Snr.)

Nottlock | Nightglow (Argentus/Candace)

Corvuha | Suncrow (Corvus VI/Nuha)

Tresier | Whiterose (Benedictus/Edelweiss)

Drugnus (Cygnus III/Druella)

There are also a couple gay ships within this group that I like the idea of:

Whitedove (Druella/Edelweiss)

Fairflower (Fiona/Poppy)

Hendigo (Henriette/Indigo)

Sundove (Druella/Nuha)

Candervla | Glowdesire (Candace/Dervla)

Selfishdesire (Dervla/Walburga)

List of families under the cut.

So, Alphard leaves his family at some point and lives with Aurora Sterling, and the two never get married but they do have a son together named Marius Sterling (Marius is a name that does appear on the Black Family tree once, so I figured why not use it for a second member of the family). Marius attends Hogwarts, although I don't think he'd really reveal himself to the Black family, since Alphard Black is a surprisingly prominent but very mysterious character, so I assume he's kept his life hidden from his family. When Alphard dies, most of his wealth goes to Aurora and Marius, with a portion of it going to Sirius to help him escape the Black's. Marius falls in love with a muggle woman, they have their story, he leaves and the Death-Eaters, specifically probably Bellatrix and Rodolphus I imagine, go after him after in some way, shape or form, figuring out who he is. When he refuses to join they engage in a duel, and one of the two kills him, although they're not even sure which of them landed the final blow. (This makes it easier for Bellatrix to spill more family blood later down the line). The reason I think specifically Bellatrix figured it out, is because Bellatrix is the member of the Black family Dean is placed in proximity to, and if his parentage were to be revealed while hostage at Malfoy Manor, it would likely be her doing the revealing. I also picture Marius Sterling's death being a big motivator in making Kingsley join the Order, since that's his cousin.
