Gojčin Crnojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Гојчин Црнојевић, 1398–d. after 1451) was a Lord of Zeta, initially as a vassal of the Serbian Despotate until he revolted against Despot Stefan Lazarević. He disappeared from sources in 1451.
Life
Gojčin was the son of Đurađ Đurašević of the Crnojević noble family. The Crnojevići, initially vassals of the Serbian Despotate, revolted against the Despot; Gojčin was particularly participating.[1]
Gojčin was registered as a citizen of the Republic of Venice in July 1444. He and his two younger brothers defected to Venice after their older brother concluded his alliance with Stjepan Vukčić Kosača.[2]
He had a son, Aleksandar ("Aleksa" or "Leka").

Против деспота нарочито су се бунили Црнојевићи, а посебно Гојчин Црнојевић. Да казни и њега и његове поданике, који су имали лепих користи од дубровачких трговачких каравана, деспот је био наредио, да дубровачки трговци једно време обилазе Зету.
