Parrot's name (5)
I believe the answer is:
polly
'parrot's name' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for polly that I've seen before include "Parrot; girl's name" , "Common name for a parrot" , "' 197> - put the kettle on'" , "Fawlty Towers employee" , "- - Toynbee, columnist" .)
