George Nicolls (1884 – 11 May 1942) was an Irish politician and solicitor. In the lead-up to the 1916 Easter Rising, a rebel plan for Galway town was prepared at Nicolls' home at 2 University Road. He was arrested in Galway on Easter Tuesday before the local Irish Volunteers could be mobilised. He spent most of the period from 1916 to 1921 in prison in England. Nicolls was married in Dublin in December 1914 to Margaret MacHugh.
