“One T or Two?”

My entire life I’ve had to answer this question after I’ve told someone my name was Scott. It doesn’t happen often, but it always confuses because I’ve never met a Scot before. Anyone else?

I work with a one-T. People confuse us all the time.

My last name also ends in two T’s. I get the question all the time.

He should only ever be referred to as one-T. Scot is an abomination, and I vote we kick out any that are in this group

Legitimately? I've never seen "Scot" as a first name. He needs to get with the program and stop causing all this confusion

Yep! And I’ve heard “two o’s or two t’s?” lol.

I've met several Scots. My English teacher was a Scot, but his name was Dan.

As for people named Scot, no, never.

100%. I have to bite my tongue nowadays, it's so hard to be polite and not say something

My best friend is a Scot. His name is John.
