She can make Ian ill! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lilian

'she' is the definition.

'make ian ill' is the wordplay.
'make' is an anagram indicator.
'ian'+'ill'='ianill'
'ianill' with letters rearranged gives 'LILIAN'.

'can' acts as a link.

(Another definition for lilian that I've seen is " girl".)
