From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Zaanaim
      wanderings; the unloading of tents, so called probably from the
      fact of nomads in tents encamping amid the cities and villages
      of that region, a place in the north-west of Lake Merom, near
      Kedesh, in Naphtali. Here Sisera was slain by Jael, "the wife of
      Heber the Kenite," who had pitched his tent in the "plain [R.V.,
      'as far as the oak'] of Zaanaim" (Judg. 4:11).
     
         It has been, however, suggested by some that, following the
      LXX. and the Talmud, the letter b, which in Hebrew means "in,"
      should be taken as a part of the word following, and the phrase
      would then be "unto the oak of Bitzanaim," a place which has
      been identified with the ruins of Bessum, about half-way between
      Tiberias and Mount Tabor.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Zaanan
      place of flocks, mentioned only in Micah 1:11. It may be
      identified with Zenan, in the plain country of Judah (Josh.
      15:37).
     

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
   Zenan, coldness; target; weapon
