Aspebedes (em grego: Ασπεβέδες; romaniz.: Aspebédes) foi, segundo a narrativa de Procópio de Cesareia, um oficial militar parta da família Ispabudã que se envolveu na Guerra Ibérica entre os Impérios Sassânida e Bizantino. Aparentado com a dinastia sassânida pelo casamento de sua irmã, é mencionado pela primeira vez em 531 quando participou de uma invasão na Mesopotâmia e do subsequente cerco mal-sucedido de Martirópolis.
