Nicolas Nikitine or Nikolai Nikitin (in Russian: Николай Никитин), born on 3 May 1852 in Kazan, Russian Empire, and who died on an unknown date, was a Russian typographer and anarchist who operated in France and the United Kingdom in the 1880s and 1890s.

He held a prominent position within the anarchist networks of the period, also being suspected by French police authorities of being the head of a "steering committee" of anarchists composed of Peter Kropotkin, Louise Michel, and Errico Malatesta. He might, in reality, have been a police informant.
