Archibald Goodman Frazer Nash was an early English manufacturer of light ("cycle") and sports cars in England. He was born in India on June 30, 1889 and died on March 10, 1965.

In 1911, he partnered with Henry Ronald Godfrey to produce the G.N. cycle car, a two-cylinder light car which stayed in production through 1922.

In 1923 he started the Frazer Nash company to produce an evolution of the G.N., which became the Frazer Nash car. Frazer Nash was reconstituted as AFN Ltd. in 1927. The new company was taken over by H.J. (Henry) Aldington in 1929. At the same time Archie Frazer Nash resigned from any management role and started a separate engineering company, which designed a very successful ball turret for WWII English bombers.
