Ivan Chester Howard (October 12, 1882 – March 30, 1967) was a major league baseball infielder who played for four seasons. Howard was the younger brother of major leaguer Del Howard. He played for the St. Louis Browns during 1914 and 1915, primarily as a first baseman, after which he was replaced by George Sisler, then was purchased by the Cleveland Indians on February 20, 1916, for whom he played chiefly at second base, in the 1916 campaign. His career came to an end with twenty-seven games played in 1917.

He was later the manager of the Oakland Oaks minor league team in the Pacific Coast League from 1923–1929.
