Those are the _class_ the device is under, they can’t be changed outside of the default device classes.

Classes are predefined and not changeable, so no, you can’t create your own device classes.  
If you are missing 1 that you think is really useful and/or used by a lot of devices you could request it to Athom to implement it.
