A treble is the highest of the four main male voice types, usually found in cathedral choirs, and is sung by boys. The soprano is the highest of the three main female voice types, higher than mezzo-soprano and alto.

What is a low sounding female voice sung in treble clef called?

A low-sounding female voice sung in treble clef is typically referred to as a "mezzo-soprano." Mezzo-sopranos possess a vocal range that lies between the soprano and contralto voices, allowing them to sing lower notes while still operating in the treble clef. They often have a rich, warm sound and are frequently cast in various operatic and choral roles.

Are triple and treble synonymous or why the use of treble outside music?

Yes. Triple and Treble both mean three times as much, though triple is more informal than treble. Treble in music originated as one of three clefs - that is treble, bass and alto. It is sometimes thought that treble in SATB originated in all male choirs with no soprano singers and young boys as altos, therefore being one of three as well.
