Here's another one with a second meaning!

Trilby means the hat (very common in literature from a century years ago), but it also means "a woman deeply under the influence of a man" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trilby_(novel)

Indeed, the name of the hat comes from the fact that it was worn in a stage production of the novel!

By the way, I got 7 out of 10 by the end. I'm impressed by your quiz, usually I get 10 out of 10, and these are all good words.
