Hypnotist's name? (4)
I believe the answer is:
otis
'name?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'hypnotist's' is the wordplay.
'OTIS' is hidden within the letters.
But, I'm uncertain how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for otis that I've seen before include "Lift man" , "-- Redding, US singer" , "Place of worship; side part of head" , "Company providing lifts" , "Miss -- Regrets, Cole Porter song" .)
