Tips

culture
The most prominent real-world bearer in Chinese-language sports media is Scottie Pippen (斯科蒂·皮蓬), six-time NBA champion with Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. The character Scotty (蒙哥马利·斯科特) — chief engineer in Star Trek, source of the catchphrase 'Beam me up, Scotty' — is also commonly rendered with these characters.
memory
Three syllables for an English-only two-syllable name ('Scotty') because Mandarin can't end syllables on -t. So 'Scott-y' is stretched to -- (sī-kē-dì) — 's' + 'co' + 'tee'. The -/- prefix is the standard giveaway that a foreign name is coming.
