Suitable name for a Pole and a displaced Roman? (6)
I believe the answer is:
norman
'suitable name' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'pole and a displaced roman?' is the wordplay.
'pole' becomes 'n' (abbreviation for North, as in North Pole).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a displaced' indicates an anagram.
'roman' anagrammed gives 'norma'.
'n' put after 'norma' is 'NORMAN'.
'for a' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for norman that I've seen before include "A conquest, perhaps" , "Attacker" , "15 [JANE] the clothing company" , "Romanesque architectural style" , "Someone who's not British" .)
