Tina returns with a new name (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anita

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

'new name' is the definition.
'Anita' can be an answer for 'name'. I'm not sure about the 'new' bit.

'tina returns with a' is the wordplay.
'returns' is a reversal indicator.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'tina' reversed gives 'anit'.
'anit'+'a'='ANITA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for anita that I've seen before include "- Loos (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes)" , "-- Loos, US writer" , "lady" , "girl produced" , "-- Brookner, English novelist" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
