Gorjani (Hungarian: Gara; German: Gerendau, Görrach) is a municipality in Osijek-Baranja County, Croatia. There are 1,550 inhabitants, 97% of whom are Croats (2011 census).[1] Gorjani village was the seat of the House of Gorjanski (Garai, Garay).

Name

The name of the village in Croatian is in the plural, and therefore it is grammatically correct to refer to it as "Gorjani are" instead of "Gorjani is". A hypothetical singular version of the name would be Gorjan.
