Hiro Nakamura (中村 ヒロ, Nakamura Hiro?) is a character on the NBC drama Heroes who possesses the ability of space-time manipulation, enabling him to teleport, alter the flow of time, and travel through time by bending the space-time continuum. He is played by actor Masi Oka.

According to the online comic on NBC.com, Hiro is named after Hiroshima, so that his family will always remember the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Tim Kring has been quoted as saying, "It's no coincidence we named him Hiro... he truly is on a hero's quest."[1] To this end, his name is often used as a pun. His co-worker Ando once called him "Super-Hiro" in jest.
