Innico d'Avalos d'Aragona (1535/36–1600) was an Italian Cardinal, from Naples.

He was the son of condottiero Alfonso d'Avalos and Maria d'Aragona, from the family of the Dukes of Montalto [es], Spanish nobility. In 1563, he constructed the Castello d'Avalos on Procida, a small island in the Gulf of Naples.[1][2]

After a period as lay administrator (he was for a while Chancellor of the Kingdom of Naples, he was made bishop of Mileto in 1566, bishop of Sabina in 1586, bishop of Frascati in 1589, bishop of Porto e Santa Rufina in 1591.


In Spain, another clergyman member of this family was cardinal Gaspar Dávalos de la Cueva.
