New daily woman (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lydia

'woman' is the definition.

'new daily' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'daily' with letters rearranged gives 'LYDIA'.

(Other definitions for lydia that I've seen before include "girl" , "Roman province" , "Female" , "where Croesus was king" , "Girl's name - ancient kingdom in Asia Minor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
