Etymology

By surface analysis, *bara + -ella, of Germanic origin, borrowed from Lombardic *bāra (“stretcher, bier”), ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *bāru, from Proto-Germanic *bērō, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰer- (“to carry, bear”). Cognate with Saterland Frisian Beere (“stretcher, bier”), Dutch baar (“bier”), German Bahre (“bier, stretcher”) and Sicilian vara. Not related to bara.
