Bódog (Felix) Somló (Hungarian: [ˈfeːliks ˈʃomloː]; 1873–1920) was a Hungarian legal scholar. Along with Hans Kelsen and Georg Jellinek, he belonged to the group of Austrian Legal Positivists.
He was a professor at the University of Kolozsvár. In 1920, he committed suicide out of disgust at the cession of his university to the Romanian state, an action that had taken place the previous year.
