Help[Opinions] Re: Barbara
in reply to a message by Becki
Currently, few babies receive this name in the US, yet there are plenty of people by the name of Barbara alive today; I believe that it is extremely popular in Eastern Europe - perhaps in South America as well. In the US, it is not an easy name to like. When young, I hated coffee & I hated the operatic voice, but as an adult - I love both, more by richness, which, when young I found myself unable to appreciate.
I've read a few public comments by people by the name of Barbara which state that "it is a name you have to own": this and a few other previous circumstances helped me to absolutely cherish my unique name. The various nick-names & pet-names are wonderful when personalized to the preference of the name bearer.
For a child in the US - the name will be distinct, both by the strength & sound of the name and by the infrequent use; this distinction will honor the child when (s)/he grows to be a distinguished adult.
