HMS Athenienne was a 64-gun third-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy. She was originally the Maltese Navy ship San Giovanni, which the French captured on the stocks in 1798 and launched and commissioned as the French Navy ship Athénien. British forces captured her at Valletta on 4 September 1800 during the siege of Malta and took her into service as Athenienne. She was wrecked near Sicily with great loss of life in 1806.
