Scotto Origin and Meaning

The name Scotto is a boy's name.

Scotto is a masculine name with Italian origins, likely derived from the more common 'Scott.' Traditional Scott comes from an Old English word referring to a person from Scotland or of Scottish heritage. The addition of the Italian-style 'o' ending transforms it into a name with Mediterranean flair. While uncommon as a given name, Scotto does appear in Italian communities as both a surname and occasionally a given name. It carries associations with both Scottish heritage and Italian culture, creating an interesting cross-cultural blend. The name has a friendly, approachable sound with its soft ending while maintaining the strong Scottish associations of its root.
