Put up with Love Island (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

borneo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'island' is the definition.
(Indonesian island)

'put up with love' is the wordplay.
'put up with' becomes 'borne' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'love' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'borne'+'o'='BORNEO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for borneo that I've seen before include "Oberon (anag) - island" , "Large E. Indies island" , "Largest island of Asia" , "Oberon on the large Asian island" , "country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
