Eufemia of Kiev (? – 4 April 1139 AD), Queen Consort of Hungary. Eufemia was the daughter of Grand Prince Vladimir II of Kiev and his second wife whose name and descendance are unknown. She was married to King Coloman of Hungary around 1112. However, her husband, who had been suffering from a serious disease, caught her in adultery and immediately sent her back to Kiev. Eufemia gave birth to her son, Boris, in her father's court, but the son was never recognised by King Coloman.

Afterwards, she lived in a monastery near Kiev till her death.
