Lorraine Fair Allen (born Lorraine Ming Fair; August 5, 1978) is a retired American professional soccer midfielder who was a member of the World Cup Champion United States women's national soccer team in 1999. Over the span of ten years, she was a part of one World Cup Team and three Olympic teams, and retired from international play in 2005.

Her twin sister, Ronnie Fair, (now Ronnie Fair Sullins) was also a member of the national team. When Ronnie was called in to participate in a game against England on May 9, 1997 at San Jose, California, it became the first time a pair of sisters played together on the USWNT.

In 2023, Fair was named to the San Jose Sports Hall of Fame.[1]
