I had given the name Barra to my daughter. Zainab, daughter of Abu Salama, told me that Allah's' Messenger ﷺ had forbidden me to give this name. (She said): I was also called Barra, but Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Don't hold yourself to be pious. It is God alone who knows the people of piety among you. They (the Companions) said: Then, what name should we give to her? He said: Name her as Zainab.  

لِي زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ هَذَا الاِسْمِ وَسُمِّيتُ بَرَّةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ تُزَكُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمُ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِأَهْلِ الْبِرِّ مِنْكُمْ فَقَالُوا بِمَ نُسَمِّيهَا قَالَ سَمُّوهَا زَيْنَبَ  

Zainab daughter of Abu Salamah asked him: Which name did you give to your daughter? He replied : Barrah. She said: The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) forbade giving this name. I was called Barrah but the Prophet (May peace be upon him) said: Do not declare yourselves pure, for Allah knows best those of you who are obedient. He said: we asked; which name should we give her? He replied: Call her Zainab.  

أَنَّ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ سَأَلَتْهُ مَا سَمَّيْتَ ابْنَتَكَ قَالَ سَمَّيْتُهَا بَرَّةَ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ هَذَا الاِسْمِ سُمِّيتُ بَرَّةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لاَ تُزَكُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمُ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِأَهْلِ الْبِرِّ مِنْكُمْ فَقَالَ مَا نُسَمِّيهَا قَالَ سَمُّوهَا زَيْنَبَ  

"عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاء: أَنَّ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ سَأَلَتْهُ: مَا سَمَّيْتَ ابْنَتَكَ؟ قَالَ: سَمَّيْتُهَا بَرَّةَ، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ نَهَى عَنْ هَذَا الإسْمِ سَمَّيْتَ بِهِ بَرَّةَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ "لَا تُزَكُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ" اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِأَهْلِ البِرِّ مِنْكُمْ، فَقَالُوا مَا نُسَمِّيهَا؟ قَالَ: سَمِّهَا زَيْنَبَ".
