Ioannina, also spelled Joannina, (Greek: Ιωάννινα, born c. 530) was a Byzantine noblewoman and the daughter of general Belisarius and his wife Antonina. Ioannina also briefly married from 547 to 548 to Anastasius, the son of Anastasius Sabinianus, who served as consul in 517, and the grandson of empress Theodora. Ioannina is also believed to possibly be the namesake of the Greek city of Ioannina.
