Actually I guess it is Scud like the name of Sid's dog in the original Pixar's animated movie Toy Story.

No doubt your're right. But given Sid's (the Toy Story character) personality, the dog was probably named after the missile. (And technically, "Scud" is the NATO code name for the missile, originally the Soviet R-11. All NATO code names for surface-to-surface missiles start with the letter S.)
