When I was growing up, the name Zildjian (Avedis Zildjian Co.) was synonymous with good cymbals. This was so for Orchestral, jazz and rock use. The drummers who couldn't afford to outfit themselves with all-Zildjian cymbals would supplement with Paiste cymbals, which were considered inferior, but at least affordable. There is an immense list of cymbal makers, though, some of whom make cymbals in varieties that range from fingercymbals (good for belly dancing and renaissance consort music) to humongous gongs (think RKO Pictures, if you're old enough!)
Putting "cymbal" into wikipedia.org will get a nice long list!
