James Rippingham Bristow (4 October 1858 — 4 April 1925) was an Irish international rugby union player.

Bristow grew up in a Belfast family with Yorkshire origins. He was educated at Royal Belfast Academical Institution and Uppingham School. In 1879, Bristow was capped for Ireland in a match against England at The Oval. He was also a cricketer of note with the North of Ireland CC and in 1880 opened the batting for a Northern Irish team against the touring Australian national team, with Fred Spofforth claiming his wicket twice.
