Careful there.  "Big Ben" might be a European marketing name for something
sold in the U.S. under a different name.  Might even be something not sold
in the U.S. at all.  In any case, let's not be cultural chauvenists here.
Name changes do happen in international marketing, sometimes for the most
innocent of reasons.  Remember what Coca Cola means in Chinese, and why
they changed it?  :-)   (I don't remember but it was pretty ikky...)
