The only one here that I see as possibly being an "intentional foul" is #1. #2 is NOT an intentional foul. The player intended to move, sure, but they didn't intend on fouling nor does it sound like it was excessive contact. It doesn't fit the definition. #3 sound like a simple hold unless the fouled player had a direct play to the basket.
Intent is only part of the intentional foul rule.
I sure wish they would change the name.
