lloyd

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

'dolly possibly partnered by george' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'dolly possibly' is the wordplay.
'possibly' is an anagram indicator.
'dolly' with letters rearranged gives 'LLOYD'.

Can you help me to learn more?
