It's a cute nickname for a willful kid, but I
definitely don't think it makes a decent personal name .. first or middle. I agree with as that it sounds like a dog's or cat's name, and moreover, it's sort of comical or trivial sounding, someone being called
Scout. A "scout" seems like a low rank to me; scouting is work for children. Girl
Scout, Boy
Scout. I'd feel like I was making fun of an adult when I addressed him as
Scout.
Sorry to be harsh, but this is sort of a no-brainer to me.
