The first season So You Think You Can Dance America version (which I didn't watch, but later learned of) featured a dancer named Snejana Urbin. I'm not entirely sure why but she went by the nickname Snow.
Honestly, I like it. It might be a little too Snow White considering how many movies featuring her are coming out/have come out.

Snejana = apparently derived from a Slavic word meaning snowy: see this

The spelling Snežana or Snježana is correct, I assume her parents adapted it to Snejana to make it easier in English (since ž is pronounced like the French J in Jacques and there is no equivalent in English).

That's what I figured too! :)

Snezhana
is also a legitimate form, and the form used in Russia (and my personal favorite!).

She did? I don't remember her going by Snow, but I know exactly who you're talking about.

Yes. It might have been Sno. :)
