Hahold (I) from the kindred Hahót (Hungarian: Hahót nembeli (I.) Hahót), also known as Hahold the Great (Latin: Magnus Hahold), was a German mercenary knight possibly from Thuringia who settled down in the Kingdom of Hungary. Promoting to the Hungarian nobility, he became the first member of the gens Hahót, thus he was also the forefather of the late medieval powerful Bánfi de Alsólendva family.
