Edward to move in circles? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eddy

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

'move in circles?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'edward to' is the wordplay.
'edward' becomes 'Ed' (short for Edward).
'to' becomes 'dy' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ed'+'dy'='EDDY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eddy that I've seen before include "Chap" , "Swirl, whirl" , "Swirl; Duane -, US guitarist" , "Water circulating" , "Founder of Christian Science, d. 1910" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
