Definition
a person who is proposed or formally entered as a candidate for an office, award, or honor
Etymology
from Latin nominatus, past participle of nominare 'to name'
Kelly Says
Every awards season, we hear this word constantly, but it literally just means 'the named one' - someone whose name has been put forward. The real excitement comes from finding out if they become the winner!
