西格里克(?- 415年8月22日)是一位西哥特国王,其仅在王位7天。该国前任君主阿陶尔夫巴塞罗那宫殿的马厩中被忠于萨鲁斯英语Sarus (Goth)的仆人刺杀。萨鲁斯是哥特的贵族,也是阿陶尔夫的私敌,阿陶尔夫早些时候杀死了他。在阿陶尔夫被刺杀之后,萨鲁斯派系的阿马利英语Amali违背哥特式继承传统,立刻立萨鲁斯的兄弟西格里克为王。

在即王位后,西格里克谋杀了阿陶尔夫第一任妻子所生的孩子。他还迫使阿陶尔夫的遗孀加拉·普拉西提阿、罗马皇帝狄奧多西一世的女儿和皇帝弗拉維烏斯·奧古斯都·霍諾留的妹妹步行超过12英里 After becoming the king, Sigeric murdered Ataulf's children by his first wife. He also forced , widow to Ataulf and daughter of Roman Emperor Theodosius and sister to Emperor Honorius to walk more than twelve miles on foot among the crowd of captives driven ahead of the mounted Sigeric. On the seventh day after his accession, Sigeric was assassinated and replaced him with Ataulf's relative, Wallia.[1]

Because Sigeric was an Amali, a member of a rival clan-based subgroup among the Visigoths to the Balti (of which Ataulf and Wallia were part), Sigeric is the only one who does not belong in the succession of kings usually labeled the Balti dynasty英语Balti dynasty, if the kingship is defined by Balti dynastic connections. Due to this, as well as to the fact that his reign was a usurpation, and brief, Sigeric does not appear on some Visigothic king lists.
