Write name on small streamers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pennons

'streamers' is the definition.
(I know this)

'write name on small' is the wordplay.
'write' becomes 'pen' (synonyms).
'name' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation e.g. on forms).
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'pen'+'n'+'on'+'s'='PENNONS'

(Another definition for pennons that I've seen is " Long tapering flags".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
