Robert Alexander Peddie (1869 – 1951) was a Scottish trade unionist and political activist.

Peddie joined the Fabian Society in 1892, and was an early member of the Independent Labour Party, serving for a time as a member of the executive of its London Federation. In 1896, he served briefly as secretary of the International Transport Workers' Federation, and also as secretary to the agenda committee for the International Socialist Congress.[1][2]
