#1: Garlic is
ail in French, or this could be [le/la] + [synonym for garlic = probably allium/clove]. Then add a note and scramble.
I can't find any female names that fit the first idea, so probably the second.
Allium + N almost gives MELIAN, but you'd need to lose 'lu' and gain 'e', so probably not.
Where do you hang or keep 'raw pottery'? A kiln, if you're cooking it; or perhaps we're looking for a place similar to Clayhang.
Oh look, there's a Hobbit family named Clayhanger, and the only known member is LAILA. Ail + the note la (I understand it follows so). I hear your sister did her in,
Pervinca...
