Hi Bozena,

Bozena is a Czech (maybe also a Polish?) pet form of Slavic names beginning with Bog- like e.g.:

Bogdana - "god" + "gift, present"
Bogumila - "god" + "favour"
Boguslawa/Boguslava - "god" + "glory"

Regards,
Satu

Or...

merely from the adjective "bozen/bozhen" - belonging to/referring to god
