James Stewart, Earl of Moray (c. 1499 - 1544) was the illegitimate son of James IV of Scotland and his mistress Janet Kennedy. He was created Earl of Moray in 1501, was young enough to avoid fighting at the disastrous Battle of Flodden Field in 1513. He went on to have some clashes with his half-brother James V, and was imprisoned for a time. He died childless.

He should not be confused with two better-known 16th century Earls of Moray who were also called James Stewart: his nephew, who was regent during the minority of James VI, and another, who was The Bonny Earl of Murray of the famous ballad.
