Name for a bit of firm admonition (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

irma

'name' is the definition.

'a bit of firm admonition' is the wordplay.
'a bit of' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'a bit' mean this (the answer is formed by a bit of the clue)).
'IRMA' is hidden within 'firm admonition'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for irma that I've seen before include "Girl's name ("La Douce")" , "The girl for Irish music award" , "woman" , "1963 film with Lemmon and Maclaine" , "Lady" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
