The pat text book answer is "We'll Be Loyal Scouts."
At one point there was also lore that the consonants stood for the scout ranks - Wolf, Bear, Lion, (Boy) Scout. Then they did away with the Lion rank and added the Tiger rank and that went by the wayside. They are considering bringing back the Lion rank for a kindergarten program.
In truth the name had been kicking around scout lore for some time, usually as the name of an Indian tribe, and had been considered as a name to be used for many purposes over the years. In other words - They liked the name so picked it and then made up lore to explain it after the fact.

When the Cub Scouts was first established in 1930 the three ranks were Wolf, Bear and Lion.
