Frederick John "Fred" Hume (2 May 1892 – 17 February 1967) was the 28th mayor of Vancouver, British Columbia, from 1951 to 1958.

The Canucks award for the team's unsung hero is named the Fred J. Hume Award in honour of Hume and his efforts to bring the NHL to Vancouver.

[2] The WHL also named the award for the league's most gentlemanly player after Hume.

Hume was inducted into the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame as a builder in 1965, the first year of inductees.

Hume's home in West Vancouver was known for its Christmas-light display, which was taken over and expanded by current owner, Jim Pattison.
