Nicholas Dukagjini (Albanian: Nikollë Dukagjini) was an Albanian nobleman of the Dukagjini family in the 15th century. He was the son of Pal Dukagjini, one of the founding members of the League of Lezhë.[1] Nicholas Dukagjini fled to Italy after the second Siege of Shkodra in 1479, but is well known for the return to his homeland two years later, together with Skanderbeg’s son Gjon Kastrioti and other noblemen to lead the armed movement against the Ottomans.

Pali (1411–1458), për të cilin Gjon Muzaka rrëfen se është edukuar pranë Gjon Kastriotit, ka qenë aktiv në jetën politike. Ai ka marrë pjesë në kuvendin e Lezhës dhe që në fillim është bashkuar me Skënderbeun. Pali ka pasur katër djem: Lekën, Nikollën, Progonin dhe Gjergjin. Emri i Gjergjit del vetëm në "Përkujtesën" e Gjon Muzakës (Breve memoria de li discendenti de nostra casa Musachi). Progoni përmendet në vitin 1471 si i vdekur. Leka u bë personazh i rëndësishëm i jetës politike të Shqipërisë. Në vitin 1457 ai i dëboi qeveritarët venecianë nga Deja e nga Shasi, u bë bashkëpunëtor i Skënderbeut dhe vijoi luftën kundër osmanëve edhe në vitet 70. Pas pushtimit të Shkodrës nga osmanët (1479), Leka dhe vëllai i tij, Nikolla, mërguan në Itali dhe u rikthyen në vitin 1481 për të çliruar zotërimet e Dukagjinëve nga pushtuesit osmanë.
