At least seven vessels of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Firefly:
- HMS Firefly (1801), was a vessel built in Bermuda that the Royal Navy purchased there in 1801. She was the former John Gordon, which probably had been a privateer.[1]British Admiralty records list an armed ship built in Bermuda in 1801, and purchased in 1803.
- HMS Firefly (1803) was the French privateer schooner Poisson Volant, of 130 tons (bm), which the Royal Navy captured in 1803.[2] She was wrecked on 17 November 1807 off Curacao; no survivors.
- HMS Firefly (1808) was a 14-gun schooner, the ex-Spanish prize Antelope captured in February 1808 and purchased. She was renamed HMS Antelope in 1812, or possibly in 1809, and was broken up in 1814.
