David Gordon Robinson McKibbin (16 June 1912 – 14 June 1991) was an Irish first-class cricketer.

Born at Comber in June 1912, McKibbin was educated at Mill School, Comber.[1] A mainstay of the successful North Down side of the 1930s, McKibbin was selected to play one first-class match for Ireland against Scotland in 1937 at Belfast.[2] Opening the batting, he scored 31 runs in Ireland's first-innings, before being dismissed by John Melville; in their second-innings he was dismissed by the same bowler for 15, with Ireland winning by 63 runs.[3] He died at Comber in June 1991, two days short of his 79th birthday.[1]
