    Since our American friends haven't given it a shot, my tentative guess for number 2) is:
    Barbie might be derived from Barbara?

    Full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts. American businesswoman Ruth Handler is credited with the creation of the doll using a German doll called Bild Lilli as her inspiration. Bet you did not know that Thomas.
    How about you leaving next set of questions.

    Well, to be frank, that was going to be my next guess. :p I was pretty sure it's not a bold eagle.
