Scotty

Casual male moniker

Scotty is a diminutive of the name Scott, used as a given name in its own right.

A Scotty is also a Scottish terrier—a small, sturdy dog breed with a distinctive silhouette: She walks her Scotty every morning.

The phrase beam me up, Scotty comes from *Star Trek*, where Captain Kirk addressed the ship's engineer; it now humorously expresses wanting to escape a situation.
