Get WordPress Category Slug

I was wondering if there is any WordPress function out there which returns the slug of a category by passing it’s name.
Something like:

http://blog.com/categoryName/slug

Or anything like that.

Thank you!

This retrieves category object by category slug. It returns false if not found.
```
<?php get_category_by_slug( $slug ) ?>
```

This should work:
```
<?php 
    $slug = get_term_by("name", "tsss", "category"); 
    echo $slug->slug;
?>
```
where “category” is the name of the category.
