جَنَّة (بستان/جنت)
Dženeta is a historically attested Bosnian female name derived from the Arabic word جَنَّة (jannah), meaning 'garden' or 'paradise'. It emerged in Bosnian onomastics as a localized adaptation, keeping the original Islamic semantic field while fitting Bosnian phonology and spelling conventions (Dž represents the voiced postalveolar affricate). The name is rare and mostly seen in Bosnian-speaking Muslim families rather than being a pan-Islamic classical name. Dženeta carries the theological resonance of jannah in Islam without being a Qur'anic proper noun in its Bosnian form. For comparative forms and related names see [[Jannah]] and the Turkish form [[Cennet]]. Dženeta is suitable for parents who want a culturally specific Bosnian Muslim name tied to the positive concept of paradise.
