Julian Goodare (born 12 October 1957) FRHistS FHEA is a professor of history at the University of Edinburgh.

Goodare was born on 12 October 1957. He studied at the University of Edinburgh in the 1980s, where he received an MA and PhD. Afterward, he engaged there as a postdoctoral fellow.

He lectured at the University of Wales and at the University of Sheffield. He returned to work at Edinburgh in 1998. He was the co-director of the Survey of Scottish Witchcraft alongside Louise Yeoman. In 2019, he called for a memorial to Scotland's tortured and executed witches.

Goodare has published articles and book chapters on crown finance in the early modern period. Subjects include the administration known as the Octavians, and the annual sums of money which Elizabeth I gave James VI of Scotland, which he argues ought to be known as the English subsidy. He explored the significance of the "Ainslie Bond", made in support of the Earl of Bothwell, in the light of Jenny Wormald's work on comparable bonds.
