Doamna Ecaterina Cercheza (1620–1666) was a princess consort of Moldavia by marriage to Vasile Lupu.
She married Vasile Lupu in 1639. She was originally a Circassian slave, and bought by her parents to marry Lupu. During the Ottoman deposition of her spouse in 1653, she was evacuated to the city of Suceava, which she defended during the Ottoman siege until she was forced to capitulate and was taken captive to Constantinople, where she was imprisoned until 1658.
