There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Colman, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The Colman Baronetcy, of Gatton Park in the parish of Gatton in the County of Surrey, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 26 November 1907 for Jeremiah Colman.[1] He was Chairman of J. & J. Colman Ltd, mustard, cornflour and starch manufacturers, of Norwich and London, and also served as a Lieutenant of the City of London.

The Colman Baronetcy, of Reigate in the County of Surrey, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 29 January 1952 for Nigel Colman,[2] Conservative Member of Parliament for Brixton from 1927 to 1945. The title became extinct on his death in 1966.
