Scott (name)
Scott is a surname of Scottish origin.〔A Dictionary of English Surnames By Percy Hide Reaney, Richard〕 It is first attributed to ''Uchtredus filius Scoti'' who is mentioned in the charter recording in the foundation of Holyrood Abbey and Selkirk in 1120 and the border Riding clans who settled Peebleshire in the 10th century and the Duke of Buccleuch.〔Genealogical and Heraldic Dictionary of the Peerage and Baronetage of the British Empire by Bernard Burke p981〕
==Etymology and history of the surname==
The surname Scott (Scot, Scotts, Scutt, Scotter) as opposed to its earlier unrelated usage first appears in the 12th century and derives from the Anglo-Scottish border and its medieval border clans.〔〔The Scottish Surnames of Colonial America by David Dobson p129〕 Scott is one of the twelve most common surnames in Scotland. The Scott's clan were one of the most powerful of the Riding Clans of the Scottish borders and rose to power in the turbulent, often violent region, where they conducted fierce raids and battles with neighboring clans.
The surname appears in Kent, England by the 14th century and is thought to descend Alexander de Baliol brother of John de Baliol King of Scotland. Or from retainers of King David I king of Scotland who held lands from the Earl of Huntingdon.〔 By the 17th century the name is first recorded in Ireland as a surname.〔 There is no evidence the surname may have originated with the first Gaelic settlers from Ireland despite its use as a marker for a Gael by the Romans. Moreover in the Medieval period the surname was associated with the Kingdom of Scotland rather than an early Irish Medieval Gaelic kingdom DalRiada who did not refer to themselves as such, even though separate sources claim that the name was derived from the Scots who invaded Dalriada (Argyll) from Ireland.〔http://www.rampantscotland.com/clans/clans_index.htm〕
