Do you know any other name besides Reuben, Benjamin and Benedict that can have Ben as a nickname?
Any language is fine. Thank you!

(Also, do you pronounce Reuben ROO-ben or REH-oo-ben? And is Ben as common as I've read? )

I used to know a guy named Benton who went by Ben (but he HATED Benton). I really like Bennett myself, more than Benjamin actually.

The one Reuben I knew was ROO-ben, no nn.
