Scottie

Scottie is an English diminutive and pet form of Scott, which derives from the Old English and Medieval Latin term Scottus, denoting a person from Scotland or a Gaelic-speaking Celt. The name Scott originally functioned as an ethnic byname before becoming a hereditary surname and eventually a given name. Scottie gained independent use as a first name, particularly in the United States, and is associated with Scottie Pippen, the American basketball star. Variant forms include Scotty and the base name Scott.
