Nemoitin Nafail (1909, Dvinsk – ?) – religious figure.

Nafail Nemoitin received a traditional Jewish religious education. Moved to Leningrad, where he worked as a knitter in an artel. In 1937, he was exiled to Yaroslavl and then to Kazakhstan as the son of an executed enemy of the people and a socially dangerous element. He was released in 1953, returned to Leningrad, and worked as a shochet. He was rehabilitated in 1957.
