Best Celebrity Couple Nicknames Through the Years: Bennifer, More

Posted by Larita Shotwell on Monday, April 22, 2024

Through the years, celebrity couple nicknames have become the easiest way to spot the hottest duos in Hollywood.

It’s hard to remember a time before stars and their partner’s combined monikers, but such a day did exist — until Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez came along.

When the Argo producer and Hustlers actress began dating in the early 2000s, the A-list romance caused so much excitement that the world had no choice but to put a label on their love. Thus, Bennifer was born.

Though the couple split in 2004 after a two-year engagement, they couldn’t let a title that good go to waste completely. In April 2021 — 17 years after the pair called it quits — rumors began to swirl that they’d reconnected.

“People close to [Lopez] won’t be surprised if they end up together,” a source told Us Weekly exclusively in May 2021, noting that the pair have “always loved each other.”
