Yeah maybe the meaning of names shouldnt be given to much importance. I see amaterasu as a bit different though, even though it is the sun god, cause it is black fire, where the hyuuga is white eyes. It could be possible that the Hyuuga wont play a big part in the story, as in having to do with the sage and such, but that would be disappointing for me at least (and I know for many others).It seems like you are over-thinking a bit. There are a lot of symbolic names, that has something to do with different things relating them to one each other. Amaterasu is also related to the sun, as tsukuyomi is related to the moon, so do they have anything to do with Hyuga and Jubi? Not really. I am not entirely aware of how much such symbolism play a "big" role in Japanese story telling or just generally in Japan, but it cannot be wise to put too much thought into it in this story, every time it seems relevant. Kishi gets almost every name with inspiration from somewhere else.
Though not related to your reply, I actually like the theory of the sage being the beginning of all shinobi clans more, and that some of his blood is in every shinobi. Those that has contained some kind of unique blood line, are those that kept the "purest" blood within their clan, and thus their genes are closer related to some of the sage's genes, or perhaps more likely, his sons. With which I mean, that they didn't take too many outsiders into the clan. This could explain the firm traditions within the Huyga clan.
I mean if you take Sasuke/Itachi as the examples, they seem to be the ones with the purest blood from the Uchiha clan, just like Madara, which is why they all obtained Susanoo. Then we take the Senju. Hashirama definitely is unique. Compared to Tsunade and Tobirama, they are almost nothing. I know Tobirama is his brother, but yet it seems like Hashi has somewhat "purer" blood, and by that is closer related to the sage than Tobirama. Perhaps their dad ****ed around, who knows. They don't really look like brothers, as Uchiha siblings do.
And then the Uzumaki clan is just another example of that.
The sage has been teaching ninjutsu to people. So probably not everyone is bloodrelated/descendant to him and his sons.
