Well, Arno Londo is constructed for (and possibly) large humanoid creatures (AKA Giants, referring to large human-like creatures). You can see it on the scope of most of the constructions and the fact that is called "City of the Gods". And all the inhabitants who are called giants aren´t explicity differentiated (Giant Sentinels, Giant Blacksmith, etc). So yes, I think they all belong to the same species but vary in size by their souls (I think this because of the boss grow in Ornstein-Smough fight).

Regariding the Humanity of the humans, if I recall correctly, it was a fragment of the Dark Soul of the Furtive Pygmy, which is a Lord Soul. The prologue in the first Dark Souls says that the Lords found their souls within the flame, so they didn´t have their souls before, the same can be said for the humans we see in the intro, so they all were hollowed before. In O&S fight we see that they grow larger after consuming the soul of the other,so maybe the Lords were also humans who grew larger becase of the Lord Souls, just like The Four Kings or Vendrick (who were humans but grow larger, I guess because of their great souls)
