Good Parisian, one brave saint (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boniface

'saint' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'good parisian one brave' is the wordplay.
'good parisian' becomes 'bon' ('good' in French).
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'brave' becomes 'face' (I've seen this in other clues).
'bon'+'i'+'face'='BONIFACE'

(Another definition for boniface that I've seen is " saint".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
