The First Lady of Star Trek and wife to series creator Gene Roddenberry, it's no wonder that one of Trek's most beloved voices would top this list.

First appearing as Number One in the original Star Trek pilot 'The Cage', Barrett would unfortunately not make it to the full series in this role due to studios disliking the idea of a female second in command, but would return as recurring character Christine Chapel aboard the Enterprise bridge, a role she would resume in The Animated Series, alongside many other voices.

Barrett would return in live action Trek as the bombastic Lwaxana Troi, mother to Deanna Troi, and effervescent nuisance to the crews of the Enterprise-D and Deep Space Nine. Taking a particular romantic liking to both Jean-Luc Picard and Odo, Lwaxana's episodes were always marked with hilarious pageantry, and occasional forays into some truly touching emotion.

Although they may not realise, many people will know Barrett due to her time as the voice of the ship's computer across The Original and Animated Series, TNG, DS9, Voyager Enterprise and several movies. With footage from The Cage reappearing in Discovery episode 'If Memory Serves', even after had passing Barrett continues to be a Star Trek institution.
