TOOTSIE?

Close, but no cigar.

Only three letters are different!

Not sure what to do. Still there, Bullfrog? Anyone else?

I haven't paid attention aristo....do you go again with another word?

Could you post one?

I'm here, but I can't do it. Presumably it starts "TOOT"...?

FLOOZIE
short (abbr.)
measure of rum, say fluid ounce FL OZ
O in it
that's IE

Very well done Aristo! I thought the short measure of rum was a "tot" which was a very small measure for navy personnel.

A tot wasn't exactly a small measure in the navy. Sailors received half a pint of very strong spirit in a quart of water, served in two instalments during the day. Not for the faint-hearted.
