Amy Williams (also Robinson) is a fictional character from the Australian soap opera Neighbours, played by Zoe Cramond. The character was originally played by child actress Nicolette Minster in 1988, while Sheridan Compagnino took over the role for Amy's reappearance in 1992. In May 2015, it was announced Amy would be returning to Neighbours and Cramond was cast in the role. She made her first screen appearance as Amy on 2 June 2015. Amy is the eldest child of Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis).

The character's early storylines focused on meeting and getting to know her father and his family. Following her return in 2015, Amy is portrayed as being straightforward, opinionated, complex and independent. She is a qualified carpenter and Cramond hoped Amy would be a good role model for female viewers who wanted a similar occupation. Amy is a single mother to Jimmy Williams (Darcy Tadich), Paul's first grandchild. Amy struggles to reconcile with her father and Cramond said Amy had much pain to deal with. Amy's later storylines included the introduction of her former husband Liam Barnett (James Beck), a relationship with Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan), and a relationship with Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano), which ends when he is revealed to be her half-brother. Cramond's departure from the show aired on 1 January 2020. She made a brief appearance on 30 March 2020 and returned for the final episodes of Neighbours on 25 July 2022.
