Nina Aleksandrovna Zhivanevskaya (Russian: Нина Александровна Живаневская, born June 24, 1977) is a backstroke swimmer from Russia, who swims for Spain since 1999 after she married a Spaniard. She won a bronze medal for the Unified Team at the 1992 Summer Olympics in the 4x100 m medley relay.

After the Atlanta Games in 1996 she was banned from competition after the detected use of a banned substance (bromantan). Zhivanevskaya returned in competition in 1999, and won the bronze medal in the 100 m Backstroke a year later at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
