The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars ... have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battle-field, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse. But he has no horse, nor proper weapons for battle. Instead of the horse, he has a lance which strikes as lightning, he has spears who's points are full of posion as the sting of hornets, he has also a wooden bow with some arrows. Furthermore, he is stronger than iron ...
- Ibn Kemal, Historian of the Turkish court during Skanderbeg's war against the Turks.

Bardylis basically from bard / bardh means white in Albanian and Ilyrian , in messapian something similar meant grey , I highly doubt Bardas has anything to do with the name bardylis which was the name of the king of Dardania, this tribe is rather connected to Albanians.
Dardania from Darda / Dardha which means pear

Most, if not all, of these names derive from national romantic movements in the Balkans, not from organic inheritance of Illyrian names.

Many of the Illyrian names have been used by Albanians for centuries.
Some others were introduced later.
now have you muslim bosnian decided what you are?
After you failed to be Roman, than Illyrian, now you have become thracian?
How ridiculous can a muslim slav like you can be?
Btw, Thracians were weak people, they con conquered by Persians, next subjected by Alexander and taken over without war by Romans.
They were not important in the Roman empire and later on got conqured by builgar turkic tribes and later on slavicised by policies of the bulgar khanate.
Basically this is what modern day Bulgarians are, subjected Thracians who bear a turkic name and speak a slavic language.

Illyrians on the other hand had defeated the macedonians for 200 years, almost conquered m,Macedonian kingdom in 360 Bc if not Philip would have not come to power and made a truce with king Bardhyl.
Illyrians also defeated Spartans in every battle.
They helped their keen the Epirots and Phyrro of Epirus found shelter and was raised by King Glauk of Illyrians.
Illyrians fought for several decaded wars with Romans
Illyrians later on, became the military elite of Roman empire and ruled the roman empire from 245 till 395 AD with 29 illyrian emepeors.
Illyrians also formed the eastern roman empire and ruled it for the first 200 years, with Justinian being the most famous.
Illyrians survived as Albanians with their language and customs.
Thracians got invaded by turkic bulgars and slavs and lost their traces and became modern day bulgarians.

I always wonder, back then, what languages Illyrians and Greeks communicated in with each other.

I am just asking myself, where Illyrians left list of their name (becouse they were not literate), but also Romans didn't write a lot, about their names.
