"Girl-Who-Revived" is... not a very euphonious phrase, is it?

I like "The Girl Who Lived Again".

How about "Unicorn Troll Jesus"?

I would have preferred Girl-Who-Returned.

How about “Girl-Whose-Name-Contains-Too-Many-Hyphens”?

How about “Girl-Whose-Name-Contains-Too-Many-Hyphens”?

Hyphens? Just call her minus X-D

a standard diagnostic Charm showed Miss Granger as a healthy unicorn

Charms to detect active magic have each time detected her as being in the process of transforming into another shape

He performed certain spells ... declared that Hermione's soul was in healthy condition but at least a mile away from her body

The first two diagnostics are correct. If the third one is correct too, then Hermione is a perfect philosophical zombie now.

The third one is simply a reference to the horcrux 2.0 that contains part of her soul.

Not, it's much more akin to Dennett's "Where Am I?" or to becoming meguca.
