Estienne Durand (c. 1586 – 19 July 1618) was a 17th-century French poet.

A provincial controller of wars in the service of Marie de Medicis, he is the author of a pamphlet against Louis XIII, La Riparographie, now lost, which earned him to be broken and burned with his writings on the Place de Grève.
