Whom the bell was named after according to most people?

Big Ben is located in the tower at the eastern end of the Houses of Parliament, Westminster, and Greater Lon don. It was designed by Edmund Beckett and Baron Grimthorpe.
     Nobody really knows why it’s called Big Ben. There’re two hearsays about this. Some people say that it was named after Benjamin Caunt, a boxer, who was called Big Ben. Moro people believe it was called after a Welsh man, Sir Benjamin Hall, a commissioner of the work at the time of its installation in 1859.
     It took fifteen years to build. In 1857, the bell was completed and tested on the ground, but a four-foot crack appeared and the bell had to be cast again. Finally, the clock started ticking on 31 May, 1859. Then in September, the bell cracked again. It was silent for four years but was eventually turned a quarter of a revolution. In this way, the crack was not under the striking hammer. Craftsmen made a square above the crack to stop it growing longer and it can still be seen today.
     Big Ben is famous not only for its 13-ten weight, but also for its accuracy that is a result of its precise mechanism. Although there have been several problems, the bell is still striking today. Its chimes can be heard all over the world on the BBC.
