Surname or Lastname
English
English : from a pet form of the female personal name Barbara (see Barbara).Southern French : from a diminutive of Occitan barbari ‘barbarous’, ‘barbarian’. In particular, this word came to denote a Moor or Berber from the Barbary Coast in North Africa, and hence was then applied to a man of swarthy appearance or uncouth habits.An immigrant from the Périgord region of France was variously documented in Montreal in 1668 as Barbary and Barbarin, with the secondary surname Grandmaison.

English
English name mostly used by African-Americans, derived from the continent name, AFRICA means "land of the Afri." The Afri were a tribe, possibly Berber, who dwelled in North Africa. The origin of the word Afri (pl.), Afer (sing.), may be connected with the Phoenician word 'afar, meaning "dust," which is also found in other Semitic languages, such as Hebrew Afra.
