What's "nigella"?
Does it have any other names?

Dusty,

Here's how the Penzeys Spice folks describe it:

Tiny, black, smoky flavored seeds found atop Jewish rye bread in New
York. Used in Armenia, Lebanon, Israel, and India. Also referred to as
black caraway or kalonji, charnushka is used heavily in garam masala.
From India.
