When you conquer a city can you conquer barbarian cities too?

Yes. But if I can give you a couple tips

Barbarians are the best place to attack to get extra resources to build existing cities. You may not want to take this ability away from you.

Scholarships and scholars are expensive. Isnt a better idea to have that player city which is much bigger?

If you are surrounded by huge guilds, it may be your only choise.

Also before a planned war, you can try to sneak some cities into enemy territory. While not strong enough to build an army, you could use it as a scout outpost. Build scouts so you can keep track of enemy support while your long distance waves are incoming.

If there's a big barbarian city, I suggest conquering that to start with.

Why do I loose warriors when I attack a land with no warriors?

If there are no defending warriors, it means they have a wall, which has a basic defense that can kill attackers even when defending troops are not present. You can attack with rams to destroy a wall to open it up for future attacks

Cities with no wall also have a basic defense value.

Once you do conquer a barbarian city, any idea how to change its name to something more original than "Barbarian city"?

Goto the bottom of the city screen, and there you'll see a box to change the name of it. I believe (I could be wrong) that the first time is free, and subsequent changes require 5 gold coins.
