Route::post('/benice', function(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request)
{
    if(isset($request['action']) && $request['name']){
        if(strlen($request['name']) >0){
            return view('actions.nice', ['action' => $request['action'], 'name'=>$request['name']]);
        }

The route name is not the same as the route path.

Add the name to the route like so:

Route::post('/benice', function(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request) {
    if(isset($request['action']) && $request['name']) {
        if (strlen($request['name']) > 0) {
            return view('actions.nice', ['action' => $request['action'], 'name' => $request['name']]);
        }
        return redirect()->back();
    }
    return redirect()->back();
})->name('benice');
