Nash was one of my possibles but couldn't parse. 

I wasn't thrilled by it, but -

Nosh - 'n(ame)' for 'd(ripping; bit of)' on 'dosh' (bread; money)

Yeah i tried to get  something using cash or dosh plus the N. But is there a definition for nosh...or is it one where the definition is also part of the clue.
