Nicholas II (died after 1213; Hungarian: Miklós) was a Hungarian distinguished nobleman, who served as voivode of Transylvania in 1213, during the reign of Andrew II of Hungary.[1][2][3]

Before his voivodeship, Nicholas II served as ispán (comes) of Csanád (1206),[4] Bihar (1207, 1209)[5] and Újvár Counties (1212).[6] Nicholas II maybe was the same person as Nicholas from the kindred Csák, who functioned as ispán of several counties in the coming decades.[7]
