Emanuel Cvjetićanin (Serbian Cyrillic: Емануел Цвјетићанин; August 8, 1833 – 1919) was an Austro-Hungarian Feldmarschalleutnant, a rank equivalent to Major General.

He had received his baptismal name from his father Alexander austrian officer born in Sadilovac 1807 and mother Vasilija Trbuhović, a Serb of Orthodox faith.

[clarification needed] During the Austrian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which lasted from 1878 to 1882, Cvjetićanin was the main organizer of the gendarmerie in Sarajevo.

Milan would end up changing his surname from Cvjetićanin to Cvetičanin, following a misunderstanding with his father, and move to Belgrade, where he had been transferred to the Serbian army as an Austrian officer under Živojin Mišić.

[citation needed] During the Second World War, a large number of members within Emanuel's wider family would perish as a result of the crimes of the Ustashe.
