Another name for Romeo, when after a girl (6)
I believe the answer is:
oliver
'romeo when after a girl' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'another name' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'another' could be 'r' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'r' is located in the answer.
'name' could be 'olive' and 'olive' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for oliver that I've seen before include "Dickensian role?" , "Roland companion; Bath biscuit" , "First name of Dickens boy Twist" , "Dickens-based musical" , "Musical (with a Twist!)" .)
