According to babynames.com, these are the meanings of the names of my future fifteen children.
GIRLS
Ada - Noble, Happy. Origin: German
Eva - Giver of Life. Origin: Hebrew
Ethne - HA! I win! They didn't have it in their databanks. I've chosen a unique name. :)
Pearl - ....uh....pearl. Heh...heh...
Eveline - (derived from Evelyn) Beautiful Bird (which is cool because my nickname is Birdie). Origin: English
BOYS
Jude - Out of Judea. Origin: English
Charlie - Free Man. Origin: English
Canaan - Out of Palestine (yet another reason I won't use this name). Origin: Hebrew
Moses - Born of God. Origin: Egyptian (Ooh, swanky)
Amos - Burdened, Laden (poor little tyke). Origin: Hebrew
Asa - Born at Dawn (phooey...I really don't want to be in labor that early in the morning). Origin: Japanese (??)
Abner - Father of Light (Ooh, if he had a daughter, he could name her Light). Origin: Hebrew
Lee - Field. Origin: English
Brahm - HA! I win again! They didn't have it in their database. It's unique.

Ooohh... you should definitely go with barrel maker. I mean, that's what you want your son to be, right? Look at it this way, you'd never be in want of a barrel.
And Joseph and Andrea seriously considered using Evelyn instead of Charlie, so if they ever have another girl, they may use it. Which would be a major bummer.
Also, you have way more boy names than I do. My list of girl names is three feet long and my boy name list is seriously pathetic.
Oh, you so totally don't want to be in labor early in the morning! And your awesome friends who will be in the waiting room, waiting, (duh,) don't want you to be either. So, that pretty much does away with Asa...
One more thing -- I find it very amusing that TWO of your boy names are because of actors. Ellie, Ellie. What are you coming to? Is Pattinson going to be there next? Just kidding. Very much just kidding, actually.
asa`s name wasnt from japan.....was it?
the internet doesnt know what its talking about
and i do(?)
No on the Abner, Pearl and Lee. Yes on the rest.
I've always liked the idea of Cooper as a given name. Nickname: Coop. I know it's reminiscent of Gary Cooper. So.
