Fruit right for a chap (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oliver

'chap' is the definition.

'fruit right' is the wordplay.
'fruit' becomes 'olive' (I've seen this before).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'olive'+'r'='OLIVER'

'for a' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for oliver that I've seen before include "Dickens-based musical" , "Orphan recruited by criminal gang" , "Musical from Dickens novel" , "Dickensian musical" , "Dickens boy who asked for more, and a musical comedy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
