Perhaps I reveal a girl's name (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

valerie

'a girl's name' is the definition.

'perhaps i reveal' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates an anagram.
'i'+'reveal'='ireveal'
'ireveal' with letters rearranged gives 'VALERIE'.

(Another definition for valerie that I've seen is " Girl".)
