It’s my birthday today, so I’ll give you a very personal hint for the New York Times Wordle game. Today’s Wordle answer has several meanings, not all of them good. But one of the good ones is often associated with my favorite hometown Minneapolis artist, the late Prince. In 1992, The Purple One released a song called My Name Is Prince, and in the song, he calls himself by this word. If that doesn’t clue you in, read on for more hints and the answer.
