Alexander Inglis (died 1496) was a Scottish cleric and royal clerk. He was the son of one George Inglis and his wife Margeret.Dowden, "Bishops of Scotland", p. 78.] At some point in his life he had attended university and obtained a Licentiate in Decrees. In 1477 he became Dean of the diocese of Dunkeld, [Watt, "Fasti Ecclesiae", p. 105.] and in 1480 became Archdeacon of St Andrews. [Watt, "Fasti Ecclesiae", pp. 307-8.] On September 17, 1483, after the death of Bishop James Livingston, he was elected to succeed the latter as Bishop of Dunkeld.Watt, "Fasti Ecclesiae", p. 98; Dowden, "Bishops of Scotland", p. 78.] Inglis ran into difficulty on October 22, when the Chancellor of the diocese of Aberdeen, George Brown, was also provided as Bishop of Dunkeld. Inglis was styled Bishop-elect in Scotland until 1485, [Dowden, "Bishops of Scotland", p. 79.] but on June 13, 1484, Brown had been consecrated at the Papal see. [Watt, "Fasti Ecclesiae", p. 98.] Inglis continued to hold his previous posts as Archdeacon and Dean until his death in 1496. [Watt, "Fasti Ecclesiae", pp. 98, 105, 307-8.]
