I believe the answer is:

hubert

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

'live in pain nominally' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'live in pain' is the wordplay.
'live' becomes 'be' (synonyms).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'pain' becomes 'hurt' (hurt is a kind of pain).
'be' put inside 'hurt' is 'HUBERT'.

Can you help me to learn more?
