Gerald Abrahams (15 April 1907 – 15 March 1980) was an English chess player, author, and barrister.

In 1933 he was third at Hastings in the British Championship, after Mir Sultan Khan and Theodore Tylor.

In 1934 he took on four strong Irish players, playing blindfold, at the Belgravia Hotel in Belfast, winning two games and drawing two.

In the Anglo-Soviet radio match of 1946 he scored one win and one draw against Viacheslav Ragozin on board 10.

Abrahams was a Liberal in a period of low success for that party in Britain, the period from 1920–1960, and stood in the Sheffield Hallam constituency garnering 7.7% of the vote in 1945, after four national elections in which no Liberal had stood for the seat.
