Suphankanlaya (Thai: สุพรรณกัลยา, Suvarṇakalyā; Burmese: ဗြဣန္ဒဒေဝီ) was a 16th-century Siamese princess who was a queen consort of King Bayinnaung of Burma. There are very few historical records of her life, but legends about her are widespread in Thailand. Many Thais revere her as a national heroine or even as a popular deity.
