Sloane Leong: Hi, my name is Sloane Leong. Some people say Sloane as SLOW-ANN or SLOW-ANN-EE, but it's one syllable and rhymes with tone or bone. Sloane is the anglicized form of the Gaelic name Sluaghadh, meaning raider. My last name, Leong, is LEE-ONG, rhymes with wrong, and it's a Cantonese surname that means beam or bridge.
