A Great Name.

Lawyers:wouldn’t it be great to have a name that everybody knows and remembers? Some do, you know.  There are lawyers who are actually named Abraham Lincoln — or at least its part of their name.

How many Abraham Lincolns do you think there among American lawyers living or dead?

How does that stack up against some other high powered American names?  Which among the following is the name most given to American lawyers:

• Abraham Lincoln
• George Washington
• Benjamin Franklin
• Clarence Darrow
• Perry Mason

The answer (courtesy of AVVO) is in the comments.
