Name of girl taking me back to mum (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emma

'name of girl' is the definition.
(woman's name)

'me back to mum' is the wordplay.
'back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'to mum' becomes 'ma' (both can mean mother).
'me' in reverse letter order is 'em'.
'em'+'ma'='EMMA'

'taking' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for emma that I've seen before include "novelist's work" , "Jane Austen heroine" , "Madame Bovary, perhaps" , "companion for Nelson" , "Best Actress Oscar winner 1992, for 'Howard's End'" .)
