Of course we don't know what other manufacturers may use, but as he seems to
be the most prominent wand-maker, I would say that these 3 are the most
usual types of core.

As Harry has a phoenix feather and Ron had (in his old wand at least) a
unicorn hair, possibly - for symmetry - Hermione has a dragon heartstring?

No idea on Lily's wand.
