Hugh Nonant (sometimes Hugh de Nonant; died 27 March 1198) was a medieval Bishop of Coventry in England. A great-nephew and nephew of two Bishops of Lisieux he held the office of archdeacon in that diocese before serving successively Thomas Becket the Archbishop of Canterbury and King Henry II of England. Diplomatic successes earned him the nomination to Coventry but diplomatic missions after his elevation led to a long delay before he was consecrated.
