Barbari is a surname.
Like its variant Barbary, it refers to the Berber inhabitants of North Africa.
[1] Nerrida Newbigin argued in 2002 that there is a close relationship between barbari and the Italian barbero or barberesco.
[2] The latter word is a derivation of the Italian for Berber horse (barbero) meaning a racehorse.
