It is a honorific title that conveys a large and deep degree of respect for the person whose name it is attached to. However, if used inappropriately, it could come across as insulting/condescending. In most situations, the honorific -san would be more appropriate.

Kuro meaning dark, and Hime meaning princess, you could add the words together for a beautiful-and-bad(butt) name. (sorry, can't cuss, I'm 10!) You could add -chan, -sama, or -san to the name (Kurohime-chan, Kurohime-sama, Kurohime-san) to have a more respectful title. Thanks for reading!
