Its real name is St Stephen's Tower, but everybody knows this impressive tower as Big Ben. Ben is a nickname for Benjamin. It seems that there were two men named Benjamin then. They were both good and "big" and the tower was named after one of them, to pay a tribute to his kindness.
Tall people are usually kind. Big Ben is also kind. Every year it says hello to the New Year to all the people that gathers nearby.
