Zeami is a crater on Mercury. Its name was adopted by the International Astronomical Union in 1976, after the Japanese dramatist and playwright Zeami Motokiyo.

Hollows are present within Zeami. Small irregular depressions near the central peak complex are evidence of explosive volcanism on the floor of the crater.David Pegg, David Rothery, M.R.
