Chucus (sometimes anglicized "Hugh") was the mayor of the palace of Austrasia from 617 to 623. He was the predecessor to Pepin of Landen and successor of Warnachar.
He is mentioned in the will of Saint Bertechramnus, written on 26 March 616, in which the bishop indicates that shortly before, the property of a certain Aureliana, wife of Dynamus, bishop of Avignon (604–625), had been shared by King Clotaire II between the mayors of the palace, Gonland and Chucus. Hugues is also mentioned in the chronicle of Fredegar:
