Dejan ((マケドニア語:Дејан); ) is a South Slavic male name derived from the Old Slavic word ''dejati'' (дѣятъ>дејати), meaning "action; to act, to do". It is possible that the name Dejan is an abbreviated form of long names, such as Desimir or Desislav, with old Slavic basis "des" within the meaning "to happen". In the past, the word "des" denoted also fate and destiny, regardless of whether it's good or bad one. Name may also be related to the Latin ''deus'', meaning "god", although it is unlikely. It is very common in Serbia and Macedonia, and also common in the republics of Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia and Bulgaria. The given name Dejan and the surname Dejanović is unusually widespread in the Serbo-Croatian linguistical region, and it is first mentioned in 1349, in Serbia.〔 〕 Dejan (fl. 1346-1356) was a Serbian medieval magnate in the service of Emperor Dušan. The form ''Dejaniš'' is also found in the 14th century.〔 According to medieval texts, Dejan was widespread in Serbian lands, and it is frequent in Serbian epic poetry. The name is among the most common in Serbia: It was the fifth most given name in the period of 1961–1970 (at 5,61%); first in 1971–1980; ninth in 1981–1990. ==Derived names== Names derived from name Dejan include Dejana, Dejka i Deka. Also, Dean as a slavic name is derived from name Dejan.〔-- (-- )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dejan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
