OChem help with IUPAC names involving Ph and Bn

The phenyl group (Ph-R, C6H5-R) can be formed by removing a hydrogen from benzene and attaching a substituent to where the hydrogen was removed.

The benzyl group (abbv. Bn), similar to the phenyl group, is formed by manipulating the benzene ring. In the case of the benzyl group, it is formed by taking the phenyl group and adding a CH2 group to where the hydrogen was removed. Its molecular fragment can be written as C6H5CH2-R, PhCH2-R, or Bn-R.

Please provide the IUPAC name for the following:

(Ph)2CHC(CH3)2CC(CH2)3CH(Bn)CHO
