Daddy becomes priest (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

father

This clue is a double definition.

'daddy' is the first definition.
(I know this)

'priest' is the second definition.
(father is the title for a priest)

'becomes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for father that I've seen before include "Progenitor" , "Male parent" , "relation" , "Originate; priest" , "Relative and priest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
