I am in love with this Yiddish name, this name is lovely and I think that the sound makes it unique. I usually can't stand Slavic word names (specifically color names) but the unique sound of the Yiddish language makes it very beautiful.Here are some facts about Yiddish names :1. Yiddish names were commonly used as middle names, the first name was often a religious name of Hebrew origin 2. The golden age of Yiddish names was in the 19th century 3. Beila used to be a popular Yiddish name in Eastern Europe and has an opposite meaning of the name Charna 4. Mostly like Bobe(f)/Zeyde(m), Alte (f)/(m) Alter and Khaye (f)/(m) Khayem were given to sick children to trick the angel of death from taking them (meaning: grandmother/grandfather, Old, and Life) 4. The name Zlota can be considered a Slavic translation of Golda (both mean gold)
Charna Furman is a Uruguayan-Jewish architect noted for her design of a communal women's housing project designed to create affordable housing for single mothers.
When I really think about it, there's something rather dark about this name. It sounds even a little scary to me (though I'm not sure why). Maybe it's because of the name's meaning and because of the fact that it's spelled similar to Charn (the name of the place Jadis came from in Chronicles of Narnia). It sounds like a good name for a black cat. But I'd definitely use it.
