Charles IV of Alençon (1489, Alençon –1525, Lyon) was the son of René of Alençon and Margaret of Vaudémont.

He succeeded his father in 1492 as Duke of Alençon and Count of Perche, and was also Count of Armagnac, Fézensac, viscount of Rodez, Count of Fezensaguet, l'Isle-Jourdain, and Perdiac.

In 1509 he married Marguerite of Angoulême, sister to François, duke of Valois, who would in 1515 become King Francis I. Their marriage was childless: his wife was allowed to retain most of his titles.
