Scot Gardner: Hi there. My name is Scot Gardner. But it's not spelt the way it looks because there's only one T in Scot. Mum said, "Your name's not Scot-t." You can't really argue with that logic. And Gardner is not gar-DEN-er or guard-EYE-ner, it's GUARD-ner. There is no extra I or E because that's how you say it in Australian, Gardner. My first name, Scot, means the wanderer. And my last name, Gardner, means flower lover. So my name essentially means the wandering flower lover, which is not exactly a UFC cage fighter name.
