Yes, being born in Guys hospital makes you Cockney. The bells of St Mary's Le Bow Cheapside are just the other side of the river. It is a common mistake to mix up these bells with the church bells in Bromley by Bow East London. If you were born in Bow or Isle of Dogs or most of Hackney then you should be proud to call yourself an East Ender but not a true Cockney. The Bow bells were rung at 9pm from the fourteenth hundreds to inform the traders and towns people that the city gates were about to be closed for the night. London Bridge and the Borough to the south was where most of them lived. What we now consider the East End was uninhabited Thames marsh land in them days.
Hope this helps.
