[Opinions] This may be the TKaM fan in me... (m)
...but I think Scout is a really cute name. However, Scout was only the character's NN in the book, so that kind of turns me off liking it as a FN. But, since you're considering it for MN status-- I say it gets the green light from me. (And it doesn't hurt that I pretty much think anything goes in the MN spot.) I also think it would make a groovy NN. :o)(Honestly, I love *all* the names in that book, but I just want to mention that I love Scout's full name, Jean Louise. But I reckon that's off-limits on a real child, as giving a hypothetical girl almost the exact same name as a book character is kind of tacky, IMO. :P)

Clippy, I love your signature!I was actually thinking of putting that exact same part of the song as my sig, but I didn't.

Oh, thanks!I've been thinking about changing it, though, just for a little variety. :P

That was the first thing I thought of, too mIncidentally, I loved that book and the name Jean Louise nn Scout. It's a shame that stealing said combo would be tacky, but it is a good one. ;)

I would totally approve of Jean Louise before Scout!
