Here's an interesting name combo for you that I heard the former youth pastor at my church at home and his wife used to name their son.
Atticus Lincoln...kinda odd but hey whatever works for them I guess. I'm basically just curious to see what you guys think of it. Let me know! Thanks.

Better than a lot of the names I hear these days. Not my style, but it's a nice sounding name.

I really like it! It sounds very distinguished, for lack of a better term.

Wonderful name, very classic elegant and postive associations/role models.
Atticus is on my list too.

Lots of pressure on the kid to become a man of honesty and integrity :)

I love the name Atticus! To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my all time favorite books...although i dont know that i would name a kid Jem, Scout is still on my short list :)

I would like my kid to be named Jeremy, but it has sort of mixed denotation for me (Jeremy by Pearl Jam) I think Scouts name (Jean Louise) is a nice combo but I would only use Jean. Louise is not really my style.

Atticus is a very cutting-edge hip name. It's ok I guess, but nothing I'd ever consider myself. I do think we'll continue to see it more and more, though it's probably not something that will ever be super common.

Lincoln may be a family name or something.

I like the name Atticus but I would only consider it as a middle name.

My old roommate has a cousin who named his kid Atticus and she told me it was a cruel cruel thing to do to a child, but since then I have heard of more kids being named that, so maybe he won't be so picked on growing up. One of my friends had a son and named him Lincoln just a few weeks ago, so that name is growing on me (plus Link is a cute nickname).
