William McNamee (1891 – 10 June 1935) was a Scottish footballer who played as a centre half, primarily for Hamilton Academical.

McNamee was selected to play for Scotland in an unofficial 'Victory International' in 1919,[2][3] but by the end of the following year he had fallen out of favour at hometown club Accies, where he had spent eight seasons, and moved on to Airdrieonians for a short spell.[1][4]
