Correct; respectable (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

proper

I believe this is a double definition.

'correct' is the first definition.
(associated in meaning)

'respectable' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for proper that I've seen before include "Appropriate description" , "Correct; respectable" , "name someone's given" , "Appropriate according to rules" , "Right or suitable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
