Stephen McGinn (born 2 December 1988) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Championship side Kilmarnock.

He began his career with St Mirren in his native Scotland, before moving south of the border to sign for English Championship side Watford where he spent three and a half years but was on the sidelines for over a year due to a knee injury and was loaned to Shrewsbury Town upon his return to fitness. He moved to Sheffield United in June 2013, leaving the club in February 2015. After a short stint with Dundee, McGinn then had 18 months with Wycombe Wanderers.

McGinn returned to St Mirren in January 2017 and helped them win promotion in 2017–18. He left St Mirren during the 2020 close season, and played for Hibernian and Morton during the 2020–21 season. He signed for Kilmarnock in June 2021.

He has also represented Scotland at under-19 and under-21 level.
