Fruma
Fruma, diminutives: Frumka, Frumke is an Ashkenazi Jewish feminine given name. Rabbi Shmuel Gorr, a well-known genealogist, claims that the derivation from the word frum is an erroneous "folk etymology", and in fact it is dervied from the French word frommet, a species of grape. He claimed some elder women retailed this French form, Frommet or Frummet, Yiddish: פרומעט. Other forms he listed are: Froma, Fromme, Frommel, Frumme, Frummel Frumie.[1]
The patronymic surname Frumkin is derived from it. Notable people with the name include:
- Fruma Arest (1913–1991), Soviet geophysician and gravimetrician, and cartographer, pioneer of Turkmenistan geological survey
- Fruma Klass, mother of William Tenn
- Frumka Płotnicka, Polish WWII resistance fighter
- Fruma Rostova, Soviet revolutionary and engineer, wife of Mykola Shchors, Soviet Red Army commander
