it's not that they are always the same. Some who are named "Ben" doesn't mean their given name is Benjamin.
I know an "Abby" who is not an "Abigail", and I know a "Bob" who is not a "Robert".
This are just nicknames or shorter names for longer given names...
A few more to add to the list:
Elizabeth: Liz, Beth, Lisa, Liza
William: Will, Bill
Harold: Harry
Ronald: Ron, Ronnie
Jonathan: John or Jon
Christopher/Christina: Chris
Anthony: Ant, Tony
Charles: Charlie, Chuck
Donald: Don, Donnie
Stephan: Steve
Daniella/Danielle: Dani
Daniel: Dan
Alexander: Alex
