Stacy Aumonier (31 March 1877 – 21 December 1928) was a British author and stage performer, known best for his short stories. Between 1913 and 1928, he published more than 85 stories, 6 novels, a volume of character studies, and a volume of 15 essays.

The Nobel Prize winner (and Forsyte Saga author) John Galsworthy described Aumonier as "one of the best short-story writers of all time" and predicted that, through the best of his stories, he would "outlive all the writers of his day".

James Hilton (author of Goodbye, Mr Chips and Lost Horizon) said of Aumonier: "I think his very best works ought to be included in any anthology of the best short stories ever written." Asked to choose "My Favourite Short Story" for the March 1939 edition of Good Housekeeping, James Hilton chose a story by Aumonier, "The Octave of Jealousy", which the magazine described as a "bitterly brilliant tale".
