EM Cryptic Clues

over 7 years

Can you solve these Cryptic Clues whose answers are the names of EM users? First person to PM me with the correct answers wins. Alternatively, the first person to pm me their guess to each clue individually will win that clue.

*I will put the name of the person who first answered correctly after each question as they come, but I will not reveal any answers until they are claimed.

I may have made a slight error with #2, as the username contains numbers at the end. I edited the number of letters to denote this as (9+2). Please bear with me as this is my first go at this.

1 Not representing a country (11) noavination
