Feliks Kazimierz "Szczęsny" Potocki (1630–1702) was a Polish noble, magnate and military leader.

He was the son of Hetman and magnate Stanisław "Rewera" Potocki and Zofia Kalinowska, and brother of Hetman Andrzej Potocki. He married the daughter of Hetman and Marshal of the Crown Prince Jerzy Sebastian Lubomirski, Princess Krystyna Lubomirska, in 1661. Shortly before his death he married again, in 1700, his second wife being Konstancja Roża Łos.

He became famous in the Chocim expedition in 1673. He signed the sejm's election document of Jan Sobieski as King of Poland and participated in the Vienna expedition in 1683 during the Great Turkish War.
