Yep, there's the problem!   You are misspelling the "common names". 

If you look up "benzene", not "bezene", you will find that Its "IUPAC" name is "benzene"!

If you look up "toluene", not "toulene", you will find the "IUPAC" name is "methylbenzene".

And, finally if you look up "naphthalene" rather than "naphthalene", you will find that the "IUPAC" name is, again, "naphthalene".

(The "systematic IUPAC name" (I confess I don't know that that means) can be "Bicyclo[4.4.0]deca-1,3,5,7,9-pentaene" or "Bicyclo[4.4.0]deca-2,4,6,8,10-pentaene").
