I'm Swedish, and believe me, that name doesn't sound remotely Scandinavian. I agree with Jim Young. It's probably Slavic.

The spelling is German but the name looks Slavic. This suggests that the name is either Sorbian, Lusatian, etc., belonging to the Slavic speaking peoples of Eastern Germany; or it's a Czech or Polish name whose spelling has been changed after migration to Germany.
The meaning may be the same as another German/Slav surname, Boschan, which is said to be a diminutive of some Slavic given name such as Boleslav or Boguslav.
