Esther's other name (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hester

'name' is the definition.

'esther's other' is the wordplay.
'other' is an anagram indicator.
'esther' anagrammed gives 'HESTER'.

(Other definitions for hester that I've seen before include "Esther (anag.), woman's name" , "Esther (anag.), girl's name" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
