Raoul I of Lusignan or Raoul I de Lusignan (1160 or 1164/1165 – Acre, Palestine, 1217 or Melle, May 1, 1219) was the second son of Hugh IX de Lusignan, Co-Seigneur de Lusignan (c. 1141 – 1169), and wife, Mathilde of Angoulême (1181 – 1233), and the grandson of Hugh VIII. He became Seigneur d'Issoudun before 1200, Count of Eu by marriage, Seigneur de Melle, de Chize, de Civray and de La Mothe. He was buried at the Priory of Fontblanche, in Exoudun.
