I'm not convinced Woll. Straight from the horses mouth, on p64 of Chimes From A Wooden Bell Taqui says; "I was to have been called 'Thorstein' after the Viking hero of my grandfather's novel. But they had to make do with 'Harriet', after my Irish grandmother, and 'Taqui', after the Armenian grandmother lost in Anatolia". No mention of Barbara! Perhaps Barbara was just one of many on the list?
