Alexander Home of North Berwick (floruit 1570–1597) was a Scottish landowner and Provost of Edinburgh. His surname is sometimes spelled "Hume". He was a son of Patrick Home of Polwarth (d. 1578) and Elizabeth Hepburn (d. 1571) daughter of Patrick Hepburn of Waughton, and a younger brother of the courtier and poet Patrick Hume of Polwarth (d. 1599). He obtained the lands of North Berwick priory from his younger sister Margaret Home, the last Prioress, in 1562. The English diplomat Thomas Randolph mentioned him as a mutual friend of the envoy Nicolas Elphinstone in 1571. He joined the court of James VI in October 1580 as a gentleman of the bedchamber, and was sent as an envoy to Queen Elizabeth. At first she refused to meet him in person in response to the treatment of her ambassador Robert Bowes in Edinburgh, and her disapproval of the king's favourite Esmé Stewart, Duke of Lennox. Home was then allowed to discuss this matter, border administration, redress for losses to English pirates, and the rendition of a border reiver called Ekkie Turnbull. Lennox was said to be displeased with Elizabeth's answers and Home's efforts. In July 1592 he was made captain of Tantallon Castle.
