Excuse me, what is wrong with the name "Ben"? Benjamin Franklin, Benjamin Harrison, Ben E. King, Ben Shapiro, Ben Affleck, Benjamin Bratt, Ben Stein, Benjamin Netanyahu, Dr. Benjamin Spock, Ben Vereen; Benjamin Britten...
As for Barney, I'll grant you the only ones I can think of are Barney Fife and Barney Frank. I imagine it is a nickname for Bernard, Barnett, etc.
