Bell
A bell is a directly struck idiophone percussion instrument. Most bells have the shape of a hollow cup that when struck vibrates in a single strong strike tone, with its sides forming an efficient resonator. The strike may be made by an internal "clapper" or "uvula", an external hammer, or—in small bells—by a small loose sphere enclosed within the body of the bell (jingle bell). Bells are usually cast from bell metal (a type of bronze) for its resonant properties, but can also be made from other hard materials. This depends on the function. Some small bells such as ornamental bells or cowbells can be made from cast or pressed metal, glass or ceramic, but large bells such as a church, clock and tower bells are normally cast from bell metal. Bells intended to be heard over a wide area can range from a single bell hung in a turret or bell-gable, to a musical ensemble such as an English ring of bells, a carillon or a Russian zvon which are tuned to a common scale and ins ...

Bell (surname)
Bell is a surname common in English speaking countries with several word-origins. The surname is derived from the Middle English ''bell''. This surname likely originated as an occupational name for a bell ringer or bell maker; or else from a topographic name for someone who lived by an actual bell, or by a house sign or inn sign. In other cases, the surname ''Bell'' is derived from the mediaeval personal name ''Bel''. The masculine form of this personal name is derived from the Old French ''beu'', ''bel'' ("handsome"); the feminine form of the name represents a short form of ''Isobel''. In some cases, the surname originates from a nickname, or descriptive name, derived from the Old French ''bel'' ("beautiful", "fair"). In some cases, the surname is derived from placenames in Norway (Bell) and Germany (Bell in Rhineland; and possibly Belle, in Westphalia). The surname Bell is also sometimes an Anglicized form of the German ''Böhl'' or '' Böll''.. This webpage is a partial transcri ...
