Lets it recreate names (6)
I believe the answer is:
titles
'names' is the definition.
(title is a kind of name)
'lets it recreate' is the wordplay.
'recreate' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'recreated' mean this).
'lets'+'it'='letsit'
'letsit' is an anagram of 'TITLES'.
(Other definitions for titles that I've seen before include "Names of books or ranks" , "deeds" , "Names of books or lords" , "Designations or headings" , "Formal names or grades" .)
