|wketx=[[Abron]] or [[Habron]] (Ancient Greek: [[Ἅβρων]]) was the name of a number of people in classical Greek history:

# A son of the Attic orator Lycurgus.
# The son of Callias, of the deme of Bate in Attica, who wrote on the festivals and sacrifices of the Greeks. He also wrote a work, περὶ παρωνύμων, which is frequently referred to by Stephanus of Byzantium (s.v. Ἀγάθη, Ἄργος, &c.) and other writers.
# A Phrygian or Rhodian sophist and grammarian, pupil of Tryphon, and originally a slave (his parents were also slaves), who taught at Rome under the first Caesars. He was presumably the same Habron who was the author of the treatise On the Pronoun.
# A rich person at Argos, from whom the proverb Ἅβρωνος βίος ("The life of Abron"), which was applied to extravagant persons, is said to have been derived.
