The name clicks a bell

During lunch, a colleague of the contributor said he saw a name on a list and said “that name clicks a bell”. This is a nice congruent conflation of “clicks” and “rings a bell”, both meaning to understand or remember something or someone, although the latter is to remind you of something but not remember exactly what it is. A tip of the hat to Martin Pietrucha for hearing this one, clicking the bell, and sending it in.
