As the Eggheads from Grammar class would tell you, the answer is simple: Hwôld. That's H is in Home, O as in O well, W as in Walk, A as in All, L as in Meld, D as in Filled. Which brings us back to Hwôld, i.e., ``just as it's spelled.'' (The same eggheads would deride me for ``just like it's spelled.'')

But for us plain folk, there are easier ways to understand such things. At position 27 in the periodic table, sandwiched between Iron and Nickel, sits, conveniently, "Cobalt," whose vowel structure is identical to that of "Howald." One who has been hit in winter time with an orb of semifrozen water could reasonably be said to have been "snowballed", which matches not only vowel structure, but the "-ald" part perfectly.
