Alfred Georges Naccache (or Naqqache) (1887-1978) was a Lebanese statesman, prime minister and head of state during the French Mandate of Lebanon. He was serving as Prime Minister when he was appointed President by the French authorities after the resignation of Emile Edde. Pierre-Georges Arlabosse served as acting President for 6 days before Naccache assumed office. Naccache was a Maronite Catholic. A street in the Lebanese capital Beirut is named in his honor.
