The "wilted" user and 5 downvoters are wrong - Shouta is not a separate name. It is just a different spelling. Shota, Shōta, and Shouta are all different English spellings of the same Japanese name. So they are not separate like that user says, just romanized differently. They're also pronounced the same.However, it should be noted that, while using in English countries may be questionable, the 'Shotaro Complex' (abbreviated to Shota) comes from the fact that Shotaro is a super common stereotypical boys' name in Japan. So people in Japan aren't likely to blink an eye if you use this name there.
Looks like a harsh name with the word shout in it.
The name Shouta isn't pronounced even closely to the English word shout.

Judging by the spelling, it is pronounced "Show-oo-tuh".
This the Japanese name for pornography that has adults with boy children. Because of this association I would never dream of naming my child this.
The other commenter is incorrect; the term is 'shota', short for shotacon. I agree, it is extremely similar, and the associations are very unpleasant. However, that shouldn't stop you from using this name. I think the name has a nice sound, and is very nice in meaning, as well. The Shotaro complex is unrelated and while not exactly rosy, at least free from this name. This name is pretty cool, in my opinion.
