Donald Norman MacLeod (17 November 1932 – 29 May 2008) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played first-class cricket for Canterbury, Central Districts and Wellington between 1956 and 1968.

An right-handed batsman who often opened the innings, MacLeod scored a century on his first-class debut in December 1956 for Central Districts against Wellington, when he made 117: "while he was at the wicket the crowd were entertained by some glorious strokes, and late in his innings, some confident but heart-stopping short runs". He made his highest score in 1957–58, when he made 135 for Central Districts against Auckland. He also played Hawke Cup cricket for five North Island teams between 1957 and 1975.
