Dejana is of Slavic origin, specifically South Slavic, and it means "young woman". It's composed of the elements "dejan" meaning "to create, to form" and "-a", a feminine suffix. The name Dejana is often associated with creativity and formation in its literal sense, but it also has a warmth and femininity that makes it appealing. It is not particularly common outside of Slavic countries, which can make it unique and interesting when encountered. The spelling "Dejana" uses the letter 'j', which is pronounced as 'y' in English, so it would be pronounced DEH-yah-nah.
