Aleksandrina Naydenova (Bulgarian: Александрина Найденова; born 29 February 1992) is a Bulgarian former professional tennis player.

On 9 September 2019, she reached her highest WTA singles ranking of world No. 218 whilst her best doubles ranking is No. 95, achieved on 25 September 2017.

On 27 December 2019, Naydenova was given a provisional suspension by the Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU) for several cases of suspected match-fixing between 2015 and 2019. After months of appealing in to the TIU in the Independent Anti-Corruption Hearing, in late November 2020, Naydenova was banned from professional tennis for life for 13 charges; 12 cases of match-fixing across the WTA and the ITF, and one relating to numerous incidents of non-cooperation with the TIU during the investigation process. The then 28-year-old from Plovdiv was also fined US$150,000. She was ranked No. 239 in singles at the time of her suspension.
