Benjamin Friedman → Benny Friedman (disambiguation)Benny Friedman (disambiguation) – This is the name used by the majority of the people in this article. In solidarity, Dafootballguy (Want to talk?) 20:45, 23 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. There are only three entries listed upon the Benjamin Friedman disambiguation page and the Benny name page states that, "Benny or Bennie is a given name or a shortened version of the given name Benjamin (name)..." Since the WP:COMMONNAME of one of the three entries, Benjamin M. Friedman, is not "Benny", it seems intuitive to leave the dab page at "Benjamin Friedman" without the addition of the parenthetical qualifier "(disambiguation)". —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 00:46, 24 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Oppose, the full name of all the entrants is Benjamin, while one of the Benjamin's is not known as Benny.--Ortizesp (talk) 16:24, 24 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Oppose Benny is a variant of "Benjamin". Crouch, Swale (talk) 22:03, 24 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
