loogan

noun

1. (US, dated, slang)A fool.

   “‘You think he sent that loogan after you?’ ‘What's a loogan?’ ‘A guy with a gun.’”

2. (US, derogatory, slang)A Lithuanian.

   “‘Excuse me,’ I said. ‘Marcelonas? Is that your name, Doyle Marcelonas?' ‘Marcelunis,’ he said. ‘That's a real Chicago name,’ I said. ‘Right?’ ‘Marquette Park,’ he said. ‘A South Side boy,’ I said. ‘South Side loogan,’ he said. ‘Grew up in Marquette Park and I live in Beverly now.’ I thought I had him sidetracked. Loogan meant he was Lithuanian, and I wanted to take the conversation in that direction. Didn't get the chance.”
