Name after Sallie, Fannie or Ginnie crossword clue
94 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 23, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Name after Sallie, Fannie or Ginnie” is MAE. It appears as 94 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 23, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “In and Out” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 17, column 19 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with M and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
