I think Barbara is the daughter of the franchise creator, Cubby Broccoli.

I once had my children convinced that the Broccoli family of producers had invented the vegetable.

broccoli the vegetable is named after the Broccoli family. They've always owned the Bond franchise. Cubby Broccoli ran it in the 70's

The Broccoli family claims to have actually invented broccoli, though this is probably not true

Her father was Cubbie Broccoli and he invented the round broccoli.

Meanwhile, I didn't know Albert Broccoli, whose name I always screamed when it showed up during every Bond movie's credits like I was watching a football game, both had a daughter with a funnier name AND had a funnier name himself in the form of "Cubbie Broccoli" until today

Goddamn you Amazon

Somehow I always knew he was "Cubbie". My family were big Bond movie fans and love trivia, so probably that. Sad I have not been yelling "Cubbie Broccoli" at screen credits all these years, though. Big missed opportunity in my life, it seems.
