Sir Leslie Edmund Percy Riggs Falkiner, 7th Baronet (1866-19 January 1917) was a British baronet.
Falkiner was born in 1866, the eldest son of Sir Samuel Edmund Falkiner, 6th Baronet, and educated at Marlborough College and in HMS Worcester. He succeeded his father to the baronetcy in 1893.
He married twice - once in 1894 to Elaine Maynard Farmer (1871-1900); and secondly at Brompton Oratory, on 16 April 1902, to Kathleen Orde-Powlett, daughter of Hon. Henry Orde-Powlett and grand daughter of the 3rd Lord Bolton.
On his own death the title passed to his eldest son, Sir Terence Edmond Patrick Falkiner, 8th Baronet, who was aged just 13 at the time.
