Wong is the transliteration of 黃 (Huang) (literally meaning "yellow") and 王,汪 (Wang) (literally, "King") in Cantonese Chinese.

A wong is also a fairly rare term for a piece of common land in England. The term dates back to William the Conqueror and the Domesday Survey. There is an example of a wong in Horncastle in Lincolnshire.
