My idea is to write an essay about the evolution of my nickname. My name is Noah and I am the youngest of 3 boys. Somewhere along the way, alas, I morphed from Noah to Snow Dawg. It started as Noah Boah, then Bo-bot, then snowy, then snow dog. Now during my lacrosse games, when my friends attend, they cheer “Let it snow”. Nicknames are a funny thing and a penultimate step in this evolution resulted from my family’s own penchant for rhyming things (my older brothers are Super Cooper and Blake the snake). I don’t know how long “Snow Dawg” will last, but I hope it sticks around, at least for me, it’s fun. It represents the uniqueness of my personality. Some times nicknames melt away, but I hope this snow sticks.
