Name synonymous with synonyms (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roget

'name synonymous with synonyms' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for roget that I've seen before include "Thesaurus constructor" , "English doctor, compiler of a thesaurus, d. 1869" , "Thesaurus inventor" , "The man for the synonyms" , "Thesaurus writer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Universal and the L.A. Times Daily.
