Name of girl out of Mannheim (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ann

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'name of girl' is the definition.
'ann' can be an answer for 'girl' (woman's name). I'm not sure about the 'name of' bit.

'of mannheim' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ANN' is hidden within 'mannheim'.

'out' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ann that I've seen before include "Girl" , "Lady's name" , "female" , "... Margret or Hathaway" , "Girl's name" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
