Average guy (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

3

4

norm

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'average' is the first definition.
(I know that average can be written as norm)

'guy' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for norm that I've seen before include "Drawing stick" , "Something typical" , "Average level of achievement" , "Typical pattern or situation" , "Standard considered to be representative" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Daily Express.
