Names for knobs? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

handles

I believe this is a double definition.

'names' is the first definition.
(handle can mean a name or nickname)

'knobs?' is the second definition.
(knob is a kind of handle)

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for handles that I've seen before include "Feels" , "Parts to be grasped" , "Manipulates" , "Deals with" , "Names" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
