[Opinions] Re: Jewish Character Name in TV series
Are you sure Benjamin will be used? Benjamin isn't Hebrew, Biniamin/Binyamin is.

Well, that depends on whether one is speaking Hebrew in the synagogue or is explaining to other Americans what one's "Hebrew" name is. I think that most American Jews whose "Hebrew" name is Biniamin would tell their non-Jewish friends that their Hebrew name was Benjamin when explaining the custom.
