Os Menecmos (no original latino, Menaechmi) é uma peça do comediógrafo latino Plauto cujo nome é uma referência aos personagens principais. Ela retrata a história de dois irmãos gêmeos idênticos – Menecmo e Sósicles – que foram separados durante a infância. Na tentativa de Sósicles, já na vida adulta, em reencontrar o irmão uma série de cômicos mal entendidos é gerada.
