Jane Egleton (died 1734) was a British stage actress of the eighteenth century associated with John Rich's company at the Lincoln's Inn Fields Theatre. He origins are not entirely clear, but she acted under the name Jane Giffard or Mrs Giffard until 1721 when she married John Egleton. She may either have been previously married to one of the members of the Giffard acting clan or been born into the family herself. In 1728 she was the original Lucy Lockit in John Gay's The Beggar's Opera. She continued to act with Rich's company at Lincoln's Inn until 1732 and then remained for the first year after the switch to the new Covent Garden Theatre before retiring.
