SPV = getting block headers from the network
light wallets = connect to a server

SPV is a technique to verify payments (therefore Simplified Payment Verification).
All SPV wallets are lightweight clients. And all lightweight clients use SPV.

You can't distinguish between "SPV" and "light wallets" the way you are doing.
