It is rare for a young puppy to be truly aggressive. However, lack of socialization can make a puppy wary of things around him, and he may growl or snap out of fear. He may also learn that if he nips, people back off so he uses this to keep some personal space. It is important to correct this trend at a young age. Seek the help of a reputable dog trainer or behaviorist, and in the meantime work on rewarding good behavior and distracting him with a toy from situations where he may threaten to bite.
