Celebrity from Latin America (4)

I believe the answer is:

name

'celebrity' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'from latin america' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'NAME' is hidden within 'latin america'.

(Other definitions for name that I've seen before include "Monicker" , "Amen (anag)" , "Title, term" , "Famous person; identify" , "Title; famous person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
