Girl with touching article (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

andrea

'girl' is the definition.

'with touching article' is the wordplay.
'with' becomes 'and'.
'touching' becomes 're' (re can mean touching or regarding).
'article' becomes 'a' (the indefinite article in English).
'and'+'re'+'a'='ANDREA'

(Other definitions for andrea that I've seen before include "Girl's (in Italy, boy's) name" , "Name of English girl or Italian boy" , "Name for British girl or Italian boy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
