Janče (; in older sources and locally also Jančje, ) is a dispersed settlement in the hills south of the Sava River east of the capital Ljubljana in central Slovenia.

==Name== thumb|left|Janzhe written in the Bohorič alphabet Janče was first attested in written sources as Iance in 1581. The name is derived from the personal name Jan, from Middle High German Johann 'John'. The morphology of the demonym Jančar indicates that the settlement likely originally had a longer name, such as Janče selo/brdo/polje (literally, 'John's village/hill/field'). The settlement is known as Jančje in the local dialect and was called Jantschberg in German in the past.
