Levan (/ləˈvæn/ lə-VAN) is a town in Juab County, Utah, United States. As of the 2020 census it had a population of 862.

It is often said that the name of the town derives from its location near the center of Utah, because the name is "navel" spelled backwards. Several other origins have been suggested for the name, from French, Latin, or Colorado River Numic language.
