Dzenita
I have been given the Bosnian name Dzenita. I'm not sure of the origins or the meaning of the name. My mother believes it's a type of flag. Does anyone have the details of the origin of my name?

All words ending with latter ‘a’ in Bosnian language have female meaning. The same word without it would have male meaning. Đženet is Arabic word written in Bosnian language that means paradise or heaven. It is given to Muslim girls. So Bosnians are combining Arabic and Bosnian languages for more than 400 years when naming their children.
If you read anything about Islam what practicing Muslims do or have to do. They or we do it all for after life to enter paradise.

I'm not sure about the meaning, but I do know that in Bosnia it's a Muslim name and that the ending -ita is used for diminutives. Hope this helps:-)
