Frank Llewellyn Houghton, CBE, (1897, Cornwall – 3 August 1981, Ottawa) was a flag officer in the Royal Canadian Navy.

Born in Cornwall, England, and educated in Victoria, British Columbia and Halifax, Nova Scotia,[1] Houghton joined the navy in 1913 as an officer cadet.[2] In 1945 Houghton, by then a captain, was appointed to replace Percy W. Nelles as chief of the Canadian navy's mission to Britain.[1] In 1946 Houghton took command of Canada's first aircraft carrier, Warrior,[3][4] and by 1947 he was serving as vice-chief of the Naval Staff.[5]

After his retirement as rear admiral, Houghton joined the International Grenfell Association, serving as business manager.[4]
