                      Yenta or Yente (Yiddish: יענטע) is a Yiddish womens given name. It is a variant form of the name Yentl, which ultimately is thought to be derived from the Italian word gentile, meaning noble or refined. The name has entered Yinglish—i.e., become a Yiddish loanword in Jewish varieties of English—as a word referring to a woman who is a gossip or a busybody.
