I'm so upset about the Rolls having possibly Minor significance! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

morris

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

'possibly minor significance' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'i'm so upset about the rolls' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'the rolls' becomes 'RR' (Rolls Royce).
'im'+'so'='imso'
'imso' with letters rearranged gives 'mois'.
'mois' going around 'rr' is 'MORRIS'.

'having' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
