Amanda Nylander (born 20 April 1990) is a Swedish figure skater. She placed 15th at the 2005 World Junior Championships and 17th at the 2006 World Championships. She started skating as a child, in Älta. Her coach was Marie Olsson. She is the twin sister of Isabelle Nylander, who also competed in figure skating.

Despite being seen as future medal hope in the Olympic Games, Nylander quit figure skating soon after her World Championships success, failing to find the motivation for the practice required for an elite figure skater. She attempted a comeback in 2012.
