Hnin An Daung Mwei Kaw (Burmese: နှင်းအံဒေါင်း မွေ့ကော, pronounced [n̥ɪ́ɴ ʔàɴ dáʊ̯ɴ mwḛ kɔ́]; also spelled as Hnin An Daw) was a principal queen consort of King Binnya U of Martaban–Hanthawaddy. She may have been Binnya U's second chief queen consort.
Born Mwei Kaw, she was the second daughter of Minister Than-Bon of the Martaban court. She and her two sisters Mwei It and Mwei Zeik became queens of Binnya U soon after his accession.[1] Their youngest sister Mwei Daw became a wife of Binnya U about five years later.[2]
Her royal title was Hnin An Daung[2] (sometimes reported as Hnin An Daw (နှင်းအံဒေါ)[3]). She had a daughter named Tala Mi Thiri (also spelled Tala May Thiri), who became a queen of King Kue Na of Lan Na[3] (in the 1560s and the early 1570s).
She may have succeeded Mwei It as chief queen after her elder sister's death in the mid-1560s.[note 1]
