Alamuchee Creek is a stream in the U.S. states of Alabama and Mississippi.[1] It is a tributary to the Sucarnoochee River.

Alamuchee most likely is a name derived from the Choctaw language meaning roughly "hiding place".[2] Variant names are "Alamucha Creek", "Alamutchee Creek", "Allamucha Creek", "Allamuchee Creek", "Allamuchy Creek", "Allimucha Creek", and "Allimuchee Creek".[1]
