Henry of Scotland (Eanric mac Dabíd, 1114 – 12 June 1152) was heir apparent to the Kingdom of Alba. He was also the 3rd Earl of Northumberland and the 3rd Earl of Huntingdon. He was the son of King David I of Scotland and Queen Maud, 2nd Countess of Huntingdon. Henry was named after his uncle, King Henry I of England, who had married his paternal aunt Edith. On Henry's death, the Earldom passed to his half-brother Simon II de Senlis.
