Scottie

More Latin names
Mattia
“The Italian form of Matthias, from the Greek Matthaias, itself a variant of Mattityahu, the Hebrew name meaning "gift of God" or "gift of Yahweh". Matthias was the apostle chosen by lot to replace Judas Iscariot among the Twelve, making the name a symbol of unexpected election and divine selection among the ordinary.”
Marty
“A diminutive of Martin, from the Latin Martinus derived from Martius meaning "of Mars" or "martial" — from Mars, the Roman god of war. Saint Martin of Tours (316–397), the French bishop famous for cutting his cloak in half to share with a beggar, made this one of the most beloved saints' names in medieval Western Christianity. The diminutive Marty became a common American given name.”
Christian
“From the Latin Christianus, meaning "follower of Christ" or "one who belongs to Christ," derived from the Greek Christos ("anointed one"), which is itself a translation of the Hebrew Mashiach (Messiah). It began as a descriptive title for early Christians and gradually became a personal name throughout medieval Europe, used for both men and women.”
Santo
“From the Latin sanctus meaning "holy" or "consecrated", the past participle of sancire meaning "to make sacred". The word formed the basis of the Christian concept of sainthood and was widely adopted as a given name in Catholic Southern Europe, especially in Italy and Spain, as a direct expression of religious devotion.”
Isaiah
“From the Hebrew Yeshayahu meaning "God is salvation" or "Yahweh is salvation", composed of yesha' (salvation, deliverance) and Yah (a shortened form of Yahweh, the divine name). Isaiah was the eighth-century BC Hebrew prophet whose book contains the most extensive messianic prophecies in the Old Testament, including the Suffering Servant passages applied to Jesus in Christian theology.”
Amya
“A modern American variant of Amy, itself from the Old French Amée meaning "beloved", derived from the Latin amata, the feminine past participle of amare meaning "to love". The variant spelling gives a modern stylistic identity to a name whose root reaches back to the Latin concept of amor, the fundamental force in Virgil's Aeneid and the Roman love poets.”
