Dragočajna (; in older sources also Dragočajn, or Dragotschain) is a village on the left bank of the Sava River in the Municipality of Medvode in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
==Name== The settlement was first attested in 1455 as Dragotschein. The name is derived from *Dragočajina, based on the Slavic personal name Dragoča(jь), and thus originally meant 'Dragoča's settlement'. The settlement was known as Dragotschein or Dragotschain in German in the past.
