Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Ženská podoba slovanského mena Bojan. Meno sa tradične spája s praslovanským základom bojь vo význame „boj, zápas“; Bojan však mohol vzniknúť aj ako skrátená podoba zložených slovanských mien obsahujúcich prvok boj-. Výklad „bojovníčka“ je preto voľným významovým priblížením, nie doslovným prekladom mena.
