If your comparing Gnomeo and Juliet to Romeo and Juliet. Is Benny From G&J Mercuitio o Benvolio From R&J?

Benny is based on Benvolio. But he also has some Mercutio's rash and impulsive attitude. James McAvoy, voice of Gnomeo, dicho that Gnomeo is based on Romeo but also has some stuff borrowed from Mercutio. So Gnomeo is based on Romeo and Benny is based on Benvolio. Each has a touch of Mercutio.
