The name Black is related to Lamont, MacGregor, MacLean. depending on the line and the region of where your ancestors originate. If the name is a shortened version of dubhshuileach and are descended from the Stewarts of Garth it would be the Clan Duilach which takes the name from their founding ancestor of the Dark Eyes. It could also mean that you had a dark haired or dark eyed ancestor when surnames became necessary (which really was not that long ago) and the name stuck. I cannot give you a completly accurate answer without your Genealogical information. If you have some of this available maybe we can narrow it down. I hope this helps. Michael MacFarlane
