Eccentric may refer to:
- Eccentricity (mathematics), a parameter associated with every conic section
- For the eccentricity of a vertex in a graph, see distance (graph theory)
- Eccentricity (orbit), in astrodynamics, calculated from orbital state vectors as an absolute value of eccentricity vector or using other methods based on orbital energy and angular momentum.
- Eccentric (mechanism), a wheel that rotates on an axle that is displaced from the focus of the circle described by the wheel
- Eccentric (Sport), exercise movements involving the lengthening of muscle fibers
- Eccentricity (behavior), unusual or odd behaviour on the part of a person, as opposed to being "normal"
