One showing villainy by getting round dad somehow (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

baddy

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

'one showing villainy' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'by getting round dad somehow' is the wordplay.
'getting round' indicates putting letters inside.
'somehow' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dad' anagrammed gives 'add'.
'by' placed around 'add' is 'BADDY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for baddy that I've seen before include "illain" , "Villain in book or film" .)
