It's a snowflake (cold) born of resentment (bitter). "Bitter cold" itself means a degree of cold so cold that it's physically painful. The phrase is also frequently used as metaphor for abandonment and isolation ("leaving me alone here, out in the bitter cold"), which are major themes surrounding it.
It's just a great name for the thing. (in Japan, it was just called "the great crystal")
