Girl from Bognor, a hairdresser (5)

I believe the answer is:

norah

'girl' is the definition.

'from bognor a hairdresser' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'NORAH' is hidden in the letters of 'bognor a hairdresser'.

(Other definitions for norah that I've seen before include "Batty woman" , "Girl" , "Girl's name" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
