A girl's name for bread (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nan

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

'a girl's' is the first definition.
(short for Nancy or Ann)

'name' is the second definition.

'for bread' is the third definition.
(variant spelling of naan)

(Other definitions for nan that I've seen before include "woman from an earlier generation" , "Indian bread - older relative" , "Indian bread; grandma" , "Darling dog" , "type of slightly leavened bread" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
