Франк Хайнеман Найт (на английски: Frank Hyneman Knight; 7 ноември 188515 април 1972) е сред най-значимите икономисти на 20 век.

Неговата дисертация Риск, несигурност и печалба (1921) остава едно от най-интересните четива по икономика. В нея Найт формулира известното разграничение между риск (случайност с известни възможности) и несигурност (случайност с неизвестни възможности).

През 1947 г. Найт е сред основателите на Обществото „Мон Пелерен“.
