François-Nicolas Alphonse Signol (c.1800 in Saint-Mandé – 26 June 1830 in Vincennes) was an early 19th-century French playwright and novelist.
His plays were presented on the most important Parisian stages of his time including the Théâtre des Variétés, the Théâtre des Nouveautés, and the Théâtre de l'Ambigu-Comique.
His novel Le Commissionnaire is sometimes attributed to George Sand and Jules Sandeau who allegedly used his name for promotion.
