The word for Scotland in classical Latin was Caledonia. Later Latin also added Scotia, which originally referred to Ireland (the Scoti were raiders from Ireland who harried British shores during the Roman occupation).

The Latin word 'Scoti' is a noun. It's a later, Medieval Latin word for Scotsmen. For the later, Medieval Latin name for Scotland is 'Scotia'. The original, ancient, classical term for the country is 'Caledonia'. And its adjective form is 'Caledoniensis', as 'of or relating to Scotland'.
