Apparently a name which came into use by the end of the 16th century, it reflects the immigration of Scots, Englishmen and Dutch people who settled in the alley and were, arguably, collectively referred to as 'Scots'. Possibly, the name might refer to the name of an individual, even though the records don't give any details about it.
