Ensign Cole Paris is a fictional character in the non-canon Star Trek series Stargazer.

Cole Paris is a helm officer aboard the USS Stargazer. He was assigned onboard the Stargazer after Ensign Joe Caber was dismissed, and replaced Caber as Ensign Andreas Nikolas's roommate. When Nikolas and Paris first met, Nikolas told him Caber had been overconfident because he was an admiral's son, to which Paris replied that he was an admiral's grandson himself. However, unlike Caber, Paris was not spoilt and was a regular officer just like everyone else.

Paris soon developed a close friendship, bordering on a romantic relationship, with Ensign Jiterica, after accidentally walking in on her when she was in her natural gaseous state and inhaling part of her, which caused a psychic link between their minds.

Cole is the brother of Owen Paris and hence the uncle of Tom Paris (both from Star Trek: Voyager). Cole and Owen's father, Iron Mike Paris, was mentioned in the Star Trek: The Lost Era novel Serpents Among the Ruins.
