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

'man' is the definition.

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for nigel that I've seen before include "Man's name" , "Sir - - Hawthorne, actor" , "man?" , "__ Mansell, 1992 F1 champion" , "Fellows sometimes called this" .)
