I really like Benedict, actually enough to consider using it in real life. I don't have any associations to the Benedict Arnold you mention and I certainly don't care about the Pope. I think Benedict is such a handsome and sophisticated name. I would love to see it used more often. It's very underrated in my opinion.
I don't like the nickname Ben for Benedict at all. It kind of ruins Benedict for me. I don't dislike Ben in general but I think it has a completley different feel than Benedict so I prefer just Benedict without any nickname.
