In Greek mythology, the name Cleobule (Κλεοβούλη) refers to:
- Cleobule, wife of Aleus of Tegea, mother of Cepheus and Amphidamas.[1]
- Cleobule, mother of Leitus by Lacritus;[2] alternately, mother of Arcesilaus by Alector (Alectryon.)[3]
- Cleobule, daughter of Aeolus or Aeopolus, one of the possible mothers of Myrtilus by Hermes.[4][5]
- Cleobule, mother of Phoenix by Amyntor.[6]
- Cleobule, mother of Leonteus by Coronus.[7]
- Cleobule, daughter of Eurytus and possibly the mother of Prothous by Tenthredon.[8]
- Cleobule, in one source, mother of Amphimachus by Cteatus[9] instead of Theronice.
- Cleobule, mother of the tragedian Euripides by Apollo, as stated by Hyginus.[10] Whether this is an otherwise unknown legend or simply the result of corruption of the text is uncertain.
