Not an expert, but here are some guesses:

3. Looks like a Striped Skink.
4. Agama species? Ground or Etosha?
 
the gecko might be Chondrodactylus turneri. Apparently that and Pachydactylus bibroni are really similar and both found in Namibia. I don't know how to tell them apart (depends on scalation so I read) but worth knowing I guess.
