Mignon Nevada (14 August 1886 – 25 June 1971) was an English operatic soprano.
She was born in Paris, daughter of the American operatic soprano Emma Nevada and her English husband Raymond Palmer.
She was named after the title character of the 1866 opera Mignon, written by her godfather, French composer Ambroise Thomas.
Her voice was light and agile, and her mother trained her to be a coloratura soprano, although Sir Thomas Beecham thought this was a mistake, that she should have been a mezzo-soprano instead.
