From your list I choose Ben Stiller. From history, Ben Franklin. He was special.

Ben Daniels for his great roles in scifi & fantasy recently: Círdan in RoP, Santiago in Interview & the tortured general Bel Riose in Foundation (where he commands screen presence in a room with Lee Pace chewing the scenery)

My favorite is a very little and forgotten song by Tori Amos called Benjamin- And I think it will be become a more prescient song.

Benjamin, science whiz

My computer bat friend

Tell me where, tell me when

I'll meet you ninja Ben

At the back of the record store

With the tapes you secured

Prove the extent of their viciousness

As they purge our scientists

My computer bat hunts for facts

Campaigns funded by

The fossil fuel industry

How many of us will they own

To give them global mastery?

Sucking hydrocarbon from the ground

Those pimps in Washington

Are selling the rape of America

As they attack Juliana

Now there is no avoiding

Necessity resurrecting herself

And her daughters

Who will never be bought

Not by the gods

Not by the men on the hill

Thread of life

Measured quick

Spin then

Snip

Benjamin, science whiz

My computer bat friend

Tell me where, tell me when

I'll meet you ninja Ben

Tell me where, tell me when

I'm in your army Ben

I would have to say Benjamin from the Bible, Joseph's baby brother.

Specifically, as portrayed in the musical JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT, which is usually a cute twink, because he's only supposed to be college-aged (18-22).

I didn't like who they cast, though, for the 1999 pro-shot with Donny Osmond.

But so many hotties I have seen in touring/regional/community productions.

From the list I will pick Ben Barnes, because he has been posing for sluttier photos lately:
