Yuan Yi (袁遺; d.192) was a scholar near the end of the Han Dynasty in China. He is also an elder cousin of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. He participated in the campaign against Dong Zhuo in 190, and was stationed in Suanzao with Zhang Miao, Liu Dai, and Qiao Mao.
After the coalition dissolved due to internal conflict, Yuan Yi was sent to govern Yangzhou by Yuan Shao since the previous governor Chen Wen died. However, Yuan Shu attacked him in Yangzhou and defeated him. Yuan Yi fled to Pei and was killed by his own soldiers.
He was one of the few people highly praised by Cao Cao, who commented Yuan Yi as his equal in scholarship.
