Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Denmark (born October 1 1969) is the second son and third child of former King Constantine II of Greece and former Queen Anna Maria, who was born a Princess of Denmark as the youngest daughter of the late King Frederik IX of Denmark and Queen Ingrid and is the sister of the current Queen Margrethe II.

He was born in Rome due to his father's botched counter-coup on December 13, 1967, which caused the royal family to flee to Italy.

Prince Nikolaos has an older sister Princess Alexia, an older brother Crown Prince Pavlos, a younger sister Princess Theodora and a younger brother, Prince Philippos.

Prince Nikolaos was one of a group of European royals at the Slip Inn in Syndey, Australia during the 2000 Summer Olympics. He was there with his cousins Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim of Denmark and Princess Märtha Louise of Norway. It was at the Slip Inn that Frederik met his future bride Mary Donaldson.
