Giovanni Cassiano (360 circa – Marsiglia, 23 luglio 435) è stato un monaco originario presumibilmente della Dobrugia, regione della Scizia (l'attuale Romania) o, secondo altre fonti, della Provenza, fu sacerdote e fondatore di monasteri; è commemorato come santo dalla Chiesa cattolica e dalla Chiesa ortodossa. Si sa poco di lui: pare che il suo nome originario fosse semplicemente Cassianus; il nome Johannes gli sarebbe stato aggiunto in onore a Giovanni Crisostomo. Cassiano morì nel 435 e le sue spoglie sono state conservate nell'abbazia di San Vittore da lui fondata, fino alla sua distruzione durante la Rivoluzione francese. Viene, per alcuni suoi scritti, considerato seguace del semipelagianesimo.
