Robert Hooke, when using an early microscope, observed the cells in a thin slice of cork. He called them this because they resembled the small rooms monks resided in.

That's right, Robert Hooke
Definitions:
1. Any one of the minute protoplasmic masses that make up organized tissue, consisting of a nucleus which is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains the various organelles and is enclosed in the cell or plasma membrane. A cell is the fundamental, structural, and functional unit of living organisms.
2. A small, more or less closed space.
neuroglial cells - The cells of the supportive tissue of the central nervous system (neuroglia); these non-neural cells are of three kinds: astrocytes, oligodendrocytes (collectively termed macroglia) and microglia.
reticular cells - The cells forming the reticular fibers of connective tissue; those forming the framework of lymph nodes, bone marrow, and spleen are part of the reticuloendothelial system and under appropriate stimulation may differentiate into macrophages.
STEM CELL
1. Any precursor cell.
2. A blood cell progenitor, or mother cell, having the capacity for both replication and differentiation, and giving rise to various morphologically recognizable precursors of different blood cell lines, such as the proerythrocyte and myeloblast, which cannot self-replicate and must differentiate into more mature daughter cells.

According to lexicographer Jesse Sheidlower, the principal American editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, the terms hipster and hippie derive from the word hip, whose origins are unknown.[26] The term hipster was coined by Harry Gibson in 1940,[27] and was often used in the 1940s and 1950s to describe jazz performers.

Way back in the olden days in the wild, wild west the Sheriff had to have somewhere to keep the bad guys after they caught them so they developed the idea of a room in the jailhouse and they called it a "cell".
