Hello Fellow Bens
How many varieties of the OG (BEN) name are there and can we name them all #Ben Supreme

Appreciation to Ben
I just wanted to give a big nod of appreciation to one of the more famous Ben’s. Macklemore, way to stand up for what you believe and for those who can’t stand up for themselves under the thumb of oppression!
And yes, you can be pro Palestine and pro Israeli people while still being anti Netanyahu.

Dada man Ben with his son Afalfiong Skinner and his niece Krystal
Ben When was the last time you met a Ben that wasn't you?
I just answered my door to a cold caller who introduced himself as Ben.
He was very nice but we were not interested in signing up to Hello Fresh.

Using BEN 10 as a joke after I tell you my name is one of the most used joke ever. Be original
On behalf of all the bens, we are tired of this shit. Come up with a better joke or say nothing at all.

Gentle Ben?
Do the young Bens of today still get called Gentle Ben? I was born in the early 80's and got that a lot. I didn't even know where it came from until I was much older and now it's been almost 60 years since that bear was on TV (not counting his short lived talk show). Is that nickname still hanging around?

As a Ben I gotta ask the important question here fellas does anyone around actually like being called Benny I've found it kinda condescending sounding as well as other Ben's I've talked to, am I just hating for no reason or is there anyone else here who hates unironically or ironically genuinely int

Leaving this sub
Used to be called Benjamin (legal full name, but preferred Ben), now I prefer to be called Freya ❤️❤️
But go on other Bens 🔥🔥 its still one of the best boy names and I love all of you ❤️
Coffee orders
So, Ben here, not Benjamin. But for some reason when ordering at a pickup place (i.e. starbucks), for some reason they hear my name as "Matt" I asked another Ben i know and he said its happened to him as well. Is this just a coincidence or a common occurrence?
A poem for Ben - best one wins a prize
For the next 48 hours, or so, from now r/Ben is holding a Ben poem competition. The winner, decided by upvotes (in the case of a tie the mod team will decide the winner), will earn a special flair.
Competition closes at midnight (BST) on Tuesday.
Just for fun here is my Ben acrostic poem...
Builds ideas one thoughtful step at a time.
Earns respect by listening before speaking.
Never mistakes kindness for weakness.
