Nickshaming 

The act of tagging someone with an offense appropriate nickname after their shameful conduct is captured and posted on social media.

"Go Back Gretchen" will be getting some nickshaming after that video of her telling that family to go back to their country surfaces!

conversation-context nicknaming 

Da uproarious act of playfully referring to yer present-company individual by one or more words dat he has just said to ya in yer back-and-forth light-banter-speech, often to jokingly mean dat ya think dat da other person either is presently being silly or is silly-natured overall. For example, if ya are having "huggy-roughhousing" fun wif a pretty girl by folding her legs up, plopping her cute warm rubbery feet against yer chest, gripping her hands to both savor their warm softness and steady yerself, and then leaning forward to press her knees against her chest while smilingly saying, "Squish-ish-ish-ish-squish-squash!", said "folded-up" chick gigglingly retorts, "YOU'RE a 'squish-squash'!"

Another example of conversation-context nicknaming would be if ya eye-twinklingly warbled, "Ding-dong!" to someone inside a building after ya had passed through an electric-eye-equipped door and thus rang an electric bell on yer way in, and da person inside chuckled back, "YOU'RE a 'ding-dong'!" Or if ya and a friend were assembling/servicing something together, and ya said, "Since we'll likely be needing to frequently loosen and tighten this particular fastening, I think we might want to use a wingnut here," yer helper "jumped at da chance" to toss a playful barb yer way by responding, "YOU'RE a wingnut!"
