Excellent choices, all. I went with Holden; he's my favourite of Jonathan M. Woodward's hat trick ambiguous-bad-guy-who-dies-the-year-the-show-ends characters. (C'mon Joss, you *know* he would have made a fine one-off dead meat doll in S2 to complete it.)
Here's a few I like that you missed (admittedly, some may not be up to scratch)--
Note also the small subset of characters who, like Anne Pratt, were transformed from human to vampire within the very episode:
* Jesse (The Harvest). Ooh, all right, put me out of my misery. You don't have the guts-- * Billy Fordham (Lie to Me). For a memorable second. * Theresa (Phases). Angel sends his love. * Carnival vamp (Restless). I am a vampire! Ouch, you've staked me! * Cyrus (Real Me). OK, maybe not that great a character but OMG LOOK WHO'S PLAYING HIM YOU GUYS!! * Van Halen vamp (Fool For Love). They oughtta put this in a museum! * The last of the vamp hos (Into the Woods). No, Buffy, let her go! Buffy! * Vamp 1 and Vamp 2 (tie) (Once More, with Feeling). She does pretty well with fiends from hell but lately we can tell.... * Vampire (Lessons). My foot's caught on a root or something...I don't even know how I got down here. If you girls could just give me a hand.... * Richard (Lies My Parents Told Me). Buffy thought he seemed like a nice enough guy.
And, I suppose, AtS has...let's see, there's Russel Winters, Marcus (In the Dark), Penn (Jeremy Renner bonus points!), Alonna Gunn, Jay-don (if very briefly), Doug Sanders, James and Elizabeth (who annoy me to death personally but are I guess memorable), Sarah Holtz, Tamika, and Lawson. Hm....
