Danilo Aleksander Petrović-Njegoš (Anglicised: Daniel Alexander Petrovich-Niegosh) (1871 - 1939) was the Crown Prince of Montenegro. He was eldest of the sons of King Nikola I Petrović-Njegoš of Montenegro and Queen Milena Vukotić. He was, for approximately a week, a self-assumed King of Montenegro, but with unrecognised Government-in-exile. He was in exile from March 1, 1921 - March 7, 1921. Danilo abdicated his royal claims and headship of the royal house in favour of his nephew, Prince Michael Petrović-Njegoš of Montenegro.

He was married to Duchess Jutta of Mecklenburg (1880-1946) the daughter of Adolf Friedrich V, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, but the marriage was childless.
