What longtime love interest of a DC hero was said to have her look based on the features of one Norma Jean Mortenson, a.k.a. Marilyn Monroe? (though a cursory glance might argue one of her distinctive features seemed contrary to the character's)

Both of those are wrong. It's significant to note she was based on Norma Jean specifically.

Nope. The character precedes these guesses and precedes "Marilyn Monroe". She's probably not as prominent as these other guesses anymore, though she still appears and was pretty significant for awhile again around 20 years ago.

Quis has it! Vicki debuted way back in '48 and is said to be prominent in Batman comics until '63. She appeared sporadically thereafter (notably in the early '80s) until Tim Burton's Batman film returned her to prominence when played by Kim Basinger. She appeared in the Grant/Breyfogle run for a while around that time and still appears here and there. I was surprised that articles point out her being modeled after Marilyn, especially because Vicki traditionally has red hair.

Your go, Quis!

Hmmm... a question... a question...

What were the names of the Lieutenant Marvels?

I can picture them. I think one of them was Tall Marvel.

That's them. Although I think it was just Hill Marvel. Because they were known as Tall Billy Fat Billy and Hill Billy, Not Hillibilly Billy

Sounds like a Golden Age character. Don't know which one though.
