For example, I roll a 26 against a bearded devil (6 hit die). Obviously the character would know what it was and two other useful pieces of information. In what order would you give that information out and what would you omit?

Anyway, one freebie that should come with knowing the name is the type, as well as all abilities associated with that type (for instance, all Devils are immune to Fire and Acid). You can either have the players ask further questions (things like DR and SR are usually important), or just tell them what would be important to the character that made the check. If a Wizard made the check, he'd probably know about the SR, and the Infernal Wounds.
