"Variant of Abu Bakr"
The name Boubacar is commonly a male name from the "Arabic" origin.
Boubacar is the West African form of the Arabic name Abu Bakr, written this way in French-influenced countries such as Senegal, Mali and Guinea. English-influenced usage in Gambia more often writes it Bubacarr, and the same Arabic name appears as Abubakar in Nigeria and other English-speaking parts of the region.
Abu Bakr means "Justice, fairness, virtuousness, moderation, moral excellence".
The pronunciation of Boubacar is boo-BAH-kar.
