Those are good combinations. I named my son Attikus in 2012. I luved seeing Attikus Elliot, It was a close runner up to the middle name I did choose. I went with Attikus Gray. Attikus is my dads all time favorite character from To Kill a Mocking Bird, & Gray had evolved from Gary (which is my dads name).
