Does anybody know anything about Jesna? All I know is that it's a female name.

Could it be that you mean Jasna (YAS-na)? It's from former Yugoslavia and means "bright".

Could be a contracted form of "Jessenia".

I've heard of Vesna..

It could be a variant of Vesna but it's probably an arabic name
it sound like arabic
cuz Vesna is used in serbia, croatia and bosnia

Visnja

Actually Visnja is not the alternate spelling of Vesna. It is a different name. Visnja means sour cherry ( Prunus cerasus is the latin name of the plant) in croatian/serbian. Fruits are smaller and darker than in the ordinary sweet cherry and they are not sweet. A famus sort of sour cherry is grown near the dalmatian town of Makarska - it is called Amarena. They make a delicious juice from them (the kind of juice you dillute with water).
