Iza Orjonikidze (Georgian: იზა ორჯონიკიძე) (21 November 1938 – 9 February 2010) was a Georgian poet and literary scholar who was also member of the Parliament of Georgia from 1992 to 1995.

Born in Tbilisi, the capital of then-Soviet Georgia, Orjonikidze graduated from the Moscow State University with a degree in philology in 1965.
