'fishy name?' is the definition.
'Wanda' can be an answer for 'name?'. I'm not certain of the 'fishy' bit.

'stick with a' is the wordplay.
'stick' becomes 'wand' (a wand is a small stick).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'wand'+'a'='WANDA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wanda that I've seen before include "A Fish Called - - : film" , "Fishy girl's name?" , "so-called fish?" , "Name of flower - or fish!" , "Female" .)
