Name of small bird with little wings
I believe the answer is:
title
'name' is the definition.
(I know that title is a type of name)
'small bird with little wings' is the wordplay.
'small bird' becomes 'tit' (I've seen this in another clue).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'wings' means to remove the middle letters (the wings or edge letters of the word are used).
'little' with its centre taken out is 'le'.
'tit'+'le'='TITLE'
'of' is the link.
(Other definitions for title that I've seen before include "Championship -- form of address" , "Sign of nobility or name of a work" , "Name of film, book etc" , "established claim to ownership" , "Sir, or madam" .)
