The title "Barbarian" works on at least different levels. The term "barbarian" originated in Ancient Rome. Romans would call non-Latin speakers "barbarians" because their languages sounded like "bar bar bar bar" to their ears which is similar to the vocalizations of the mother when trying to say "baby". The other more obvious reference is Frank kidnapping and raping women and their offspring being objectively barbaric. Also, Frank is, quite simply, a resident of Barbary Street, ie. 'a Barbarian'.
