Another name for the leading tone is the "subtonic." In a diatonic scale, the leading tone is the seventh scale degree that is a half step below the tonic, creating a strong resolution to the tonic note. In some contexts, particularly in harmonic minor scales, the term "subtonic" is used to refer to the flat seventh degree.
