Around the globe, ภาระ (Phara 
, Burand 
, Burdis 
) is a common principally female, but very infrequently masculine forename. The forename ภาระ is characteristic of Haiti, where it is quite a rare female name, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is a rare masculine name, and India, where it is a rare feminine name. Very seldom, ภาระ is the last name as well as the forename.
