Crossword Genius

Number with a name that's well known (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

noted

'well known' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'number with a name' is the wordplay.
'number' becomes 'no' (abbreviation for 'number').
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a name' becomes 'ted' ().
'no'+'ted'='NOTED'

'that's' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for noted that I've seen before include "written down" , "Observed - recorded" , "Remarked - famous" , "Like music" , "Distinguished" .)
