Yuuto is also a female name, it is written as 優 (yuu) meaning "excellence" combined with 斗 (to), which refers to a Chinese constellation or 雄 (yuu) meaning "male" combined with 大 (to) meaning "big, large". (source: http://jisho.org/search/Yuuto%20%23name?page=3).
Yuuto can also be written as 優 (yuu) meaning "excellence" combined with 人 (to) meaning "person", normally 優 doesn't mean "gentleness, lithe, superior", that's the Chinese meaning of the kanji! According to https://ja.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E5%84%AA, it shows that Chinese use the kanji 優 meaning "gentleness, lithe, superior" and in Japan I never heard of it meaning that, I only have heard of it meaning "excellence". Anyways I would say the kanji 優人 is rare, because I only have met a young boy with the name and according to Wikipedia.jp, no one bears the name which means it is possibly rare or modern. [noted -ed]
