This makes me wonder. Live action wise, how many Batgirls(Babs) are there?

There's Yvonne Craig, Dina Meyer, Alicia Silverstone, kid Barbara in Nolan's Bat trilogy and baby Barbara in Gotham's final season.

Silverstone's technically is an original character. They removed her relationship to Commissioner Gordon and changed her surname.

Pretty much.

Despite being called "Barbara", I'd argue that she's closer to a counterpart of Julia Pennyworth, or at least a Composite Character based on both.

Totally agree Silverstone was a completely different character. Surname different, origin story different, daughter of Alfreds sister, no connection what so ever to Commissioner Gordon, blonde hair, silly Robin mask.
She was nothing at all like Barbara Gordon as Batgirl

Anna Kendrick would be an incredible batgirl

Barbara makes her debut on the Harley Quinn animated series tomorrow

It was great I can’t wait for more, hope she grows out her hair

[Digifiend]

What do you mean? I thought HQ was using the Batgirl of Burnside design?

Yeah, it was kind of weird seeing her hair be so short for a version of her that's Batgirl. It actually seemed like it grew a few inches when she put the cowl on just so they can get the hair coming out of the mask look that's so iconic for her.

Otherwise it was pretty much pitch-perfect for a younger Babs. She trusted Harley and Ivy way too easily though.

[AmiMizuno]

I'm curious should Gordon know or now know about his Daughter being Batgirl?

Knows. Always.

Ah she’s got that Captain Marvel (Carol) thang going on. Shorter hair that has to perform feats in costume that it shouldn’t be able to. For Carol, the shorter hair shouldn’t form that faux hawk when her helmet is deployed, for Babs her ends gotta strettttttch to flow out of her cowl to pull of the look.

I wonder if it's because the cowl compresses the hair somehow.

She should have some hella hat-head hair coming outta that look.
Be a funny route to go for Harley to figure out her secret identity!
