Crossword Genius

Called terribly mean daughter (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

named

'called' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'terribly mean daughter' is the wordplay.
'terribly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'mean' is an anagram of 'name'.
'name'+'d'='NAMED'

(Other definitions for named that I've seen before include "Designated" , "Entitled" , "Christened" , "Titled" , "Handled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
