I assume you mean "Why are barn owls named Barn owls?", and if that's the case then I can answer that. Barn owls are called Barn owls because they roost in Barns and churches, and there's already a Church owl.

Barn owls easily adapt to nesting in buildings. In rural areas the owl is welcomed as an excellent rodent preditor. Because of its propensity to nesting in barn eaves and lofts it is named Barn Owl.and has a very flat face
