Tanuševci (Macedonian: Танушевци, Albanian: Tanushë) is a village in the municipality of Čučer-Sandevo, Republic of North Macedonia.

Tanuševci, in local Albanian Tanushë comes from the name Tanush. Tanush is the Albanian variant of the Greek given name Athanasius, loaned from Latin. Where the fricative /θ/ becomes the stop /t/, this shows that the name passed through Latin before entering Albanian; the Greek-derived equivalent is the name and onomastic element Thanas. The Albanian definite form is Tanushi. In Latin, it was written Tanusius, while in Italian Tanussio and Tanusso.
