[Facts] Re: Barbara and Margaret similarity??
They have a very similar sound pattern, two (or three, depending on how you say it) syllables with two "AR"s in the same places. And, the initial sounds (/b/, /m/) are both articulated with the lips. People probably just mishear or misremember. My name is Claudia, but it's surprising how often I get called "Gloria," for the same reasons.
