Norman "Norm" Cockram (27 August 1899 – 16 March 1973) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Cockram, a key position player, was originally from Northcote. He was Fitzroy's centre half-forward in their 1923 VFL Grand Final loss to Essendon.[1][2] Now playing as a fullback, Cockram returned to Northcote in 1929 and was a member of their premiership team that year.[3] In 1932 he resumed his VFL career and he retired the following year.[2] He was good enough to represent Victoria B on three occasions during his career.[4]
