Made out the title (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dame

'the title' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Female title ' mean 'dame' so perhaps 'title' could also mean 'dame')

'made out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'made' anagrammed gives 'DAME'.

(Other definitions for dame that I've seen before include "Agatha Christie's title?" , "Panto cross-dresser" , "eg Edna Everage" , "Female equivalent of a knight" , "Female equivalent of British sir" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
