Frodoald (died in 814) was the Count of Vannes from 799 to around 814.

== Origin == Frodoald, or Hrodolt, is a variant of the root "hrot" found in Hrotharius, which corresponds to the name Lothaire. He belonged to the Widonids family, also known as the Guy, Garnier, and Lambert family, which originated from Austrasia and had been established in this region for several generations. His name appears alongside those of his brothers, Gu and Garnier, in a 782 Charter of Charlemagne concerning the monastery of Hornbach. Frodoald was the younger son of Lambert and Teutberge, and the brother of Guy, Count of Nantes and Marquis of the March of Brittrany.
