Dirk Peter "Dick" Blok (7 January 1925 – 6 February 2019) was a Dutch scholar of onomastics. He was director of the Meertens Institute between 1965 and 1986. He succeeded founding director Piet Meertens. In 1979, during Blok's rule as director, the Institute was named after Meertens. Blok fictionally featured in the book cycle Het Bureau [nl] by J. J. Voskuil, which was based on figures at the Meertens Institute, where Voskuil worked as well.
