In Greek mythology, the name Laodocus (/leɪˈɒdəkəs/; Ancient Greek: Λαόδοκος or Λαοδόκος means "receiving the people") or Leodocus (Λεωδόκος) may refer to:
- Laodocus, the Aetolian son of Apollo and Phthia, brother of Dorus and Polypoetes; all three were killed by Aetolus, son of Endymion.1
- Laodocus or Leodocus,2 one of the Argonauts, son of Bias and Pero, brother of Talaus and Areius.34
- Laodocus, a warrior in the army of the Seven against Thebes, who won the javelin-throwing match at the funeral games of Opheltes.5
- Laodocus or Ladocus, a prince of Tegea as son of King Echemus of Arcadia and Timandra, daughter of Tyndareus and Leda.67 The suburb Ladoceia in Arcadia was named after him.7
- Laodocus, a Trojan prince and an illegitimate son of King Priam of Troy.8
- Laodocus, son of Antenor9 and Theano, thus a brother of Crino,10 Acamas,1112 Agenor,1314 Antheus,15 Archelochus,1617 Coön,18 Demoleon,19 Eurymachus,20 Glaucus,21 Helicaon,22 Iphidamas,23 Laodamas,2425 Medon,26 Polybus1327 and Thersilochus.26 Athena assumed Laodocus' shape to persuade Pandarus to break the truce between the Greeks and the Trojans.28 He is possibly the same as the Laodocus killed by Diomedes.29
