Pompeia (born late 2nd century BC and died some time 1st century BC) sometimes also called Pompeia Strabonia was a Roman noblewoman of plebs status. Her mother was a Roman woman whose name is unknown and her father was the consul and general Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo. Pompeia's brother was the triumvir Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus or Pompey the Great. She was the paternal aunt to Gnaeus Pompeius, Sextus Pompeius and Pompeia Magna, the children of her brother.

She was born and raised in a senatorial family in Rome. Pompeia married the Roman nobleman and politician Gaius Memmius. They likely had a son by the same name whom became a moneyer. Memmius was an ally to her brother; he commanded forces under Pompey in Sicily in 81 BC; he served Pompey as a quaestor from 76 to 75 BC during the Sertorian War on the Iberian Peninsula. In 75 BC Memmius was killed in a battle near Saguntum. After Memmius's death she married Publius Cornelius Sulla, the nephew of the late Dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla.
