Déagol, from J. R. R. Tolkien's universe of Middle-earth, was the Stoor Hobbit who became the third bearer of the One Ring, after Sauron and Isildur. He found the Ring while diving in the Gladden river (a tributary to the Anduin) with his relative Sméagol (later known as Gollum) who demanded the ring and murdered him when he refused to give it up.

Déagol is an Old English translation of the "original" Westron name Nahald. Both names carry the meaning "apt to hide, secretive".

In Peter Jackson's movie The Return of the King (film), Déagol is played by New Zealand actor Thomas Robins.
