New to knotting, how would i properly describe this knot?

I start with a regular Overhand Knot, but then i double back and THEN tighten. I end up with a loop and a double hitch (though ideally you also put tension on the loop, otherwise the hitch is not very secure - i use it to hang stuff).

I assume in the "professional scene" this knot is too dubious to have a name, but surely the avalible terminology would let you describe this unambiguously.
