Betsy Hp:
Though, Voldemort doesn't speak *all* of the names.  He mentions the 
Lestranges, but they're already out (so to speak <g>).  And he names 
Lucius, Crabbe, Goyle, MacNair, Avery and Nott.  Crabbe, Goyle and 
possibly Nott (going by that edited scene JKR mentioned) are all part 
of Lucius's crew and therefore may well be in questionable standing 
with Voldemort (that imperious thing).  So Voldemort may have outed 
them as a sort of punishment.

Avery and MacNair I have no idea about.  I don't know if they're 
already pretty much known by everyone (MacNair, maybe?) or if 
Voldemort was also doing the punishing thing (Avery, who was also 
crucioed).

But there are Death Eaters that Voldemort leaves out of his little 
roll call moment.  And there's been discussions before about whether 
or not these were *all* of Voldemort's Death Eaters or just his 
innermost circle.  So there's still some secrecy going on at Death 
Eater headquarters.
