A name is confused - result of this? (7)

I believe the answer is:

amnesia

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

'of this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'a name is confused' is the wordplay.
'confused' is an anagram indicator.
'name'+'is'='nameis'
'nameis' with letters rearranged gives 'mnesia'.
'a'+'mnesia'='AMNESIA'

'result' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for amnesia that I've seen before include "Severe forgetfulness" , "Pathological forgetfulness" , "Memory-loss" , "As a mine (anag)" , "Mental condition" .)

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