Under the default build of Perl 5.15.5​:

$ perl -Mcharnames -e ''
Can't locate unicore/Name.pm in @​INC (@​INC contains​: /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/site_perl/5.15.5/darwin-2level /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/site_perl/5.15.5 /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/5.15.5/darwin-2level /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/5.15.5 .) at /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/5.15.5/charnames.pm line 6.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/perl/5.15.5/lib/5.15.5/charnames.pm line 6.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

What appears to have happened is that lib/unicore/Name.pm was generated,
but the 'make install' never installed it. There were no test failures
when building this Perl. Specifically, lib/charnames passed. I can
supply build and test logs if desired. FYI,

  Use newly created Name.pm file

  Name.pm has been populated in an earlier commit. This removes the
