Bohdanivka (Ukrainian: Богданiвка; Russian: Богдановка) is a village near Ternivka in Pavlohrad Raion (district) of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (province) in eastern Ukraine. Bohdanivka hosts the administration of Bohdanivka rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] The village has 3000 inhabitants and has a coal mine named for Samara River nearby.

In April 1930 the village was the centre of a quickly defeated pro-Ukrainian anti-Soviet Union revolt.[2]

The name Bohdanivka translates from Ukrainian word for God, bog combined with the suffix dano which translates to given, so is "given by God."
