John B. Goodenough is the oldest person ever to get one (at age 97)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nobel

(Other definitions for nobel that I've seen before include "Swedish prize" , "Prize guy" , "Alfred --, international prize founder" , "Giver of many prizes" , "Founder of many prizes" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
