Dženan is a male given name.

In the Balkans, Dženan is popular among Bosniaks in the former Yugoslav nations. The name may have been derived from the Arabic word jinan (جِنَان), which translates to 'garden' - this word refers to one of the levels of entering jannah (جَنَّة), or paradise, and is considered equivalent to the Garden of Eden. The name might also be a South Slavic version of the Persian name Janan (جانان), which means "beloved."

The name has a variant: Džanan (for example, Džanan Musa). It also has a female equivalent: Dženana (for example, Dženana Šehanović).
