Poe's middle name (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allan

'poe's middle name' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for allan that I've seen before include "Man's name" , "Man" , "-- Quartermain (Rider Haggard)" , "Edgar ____ Poe, poet and short story writer (1809-49)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, the Universal and the Newsday.
