Father of Juliet and maybe Paul, etc. (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

capulet

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

'father of juliet' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'maybe paul etc' is the wordplay.
'maybe' indicates an anagram.
'paul'+'etc'='pauletc'
'pauletc' is an anagram of 'CAPULET'.

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for capulet that I've seen before include "Juliet's house" , "Family in play" , "Shakespeare's Juliet's family name" , "Verona family" , "lover's house" .)
