Adergoudounbadēs (Ancient Greek: Ἀδεργουδουνβάδης, before 488 – 541) was a prominent Sasanian nobleman, general, and kanarang during the reigns of Kavadh I (r. 488–531) and Khosrow I (r. 531–579). His life is known only through the work of the Byzantine historian Procopius. His native name was probably Adurgundbad (in New Persian: آذرگندبد), an abbreviation of Adurgushnaspbad. Pourshariati records the native name as Ādhargulbād (آذرگلباد).
