Willie Paton (1 August 1925 – 2005) was a Scottish footballer who played for Rangers and Ayr United. He played as a striker. He should not be confused with his namesake William J. Paton, wing-half who played for Motherwell around the same time.

Paton joined Rangers from junior side Kirkintilloch Rob Roy in 1947. During his spell at Ibrox he made 164 League appearances and scored 68 goals. He was part of the 1948-49 treble season. He collected two League championships, one Scottish Cup and a Scottish League Cup winners' medal.
