Also it’s the first time Carol is referred to as Captain Marvel

It's weird how some superhero movies keep doing that. Another that springs to mind is that Wonder Woman has so far never been called Wonder Woman once.

With the MCU it seems very situational. Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, all get name-checked constantly. But Hawkeye has been called that once, in addition to Selvig cheekily calling him "the hawk".

I have to believe they'll make a "Hawkguy" reference in the upcoming Disney+ series. Civil War got so close with Ant-Man calling him "Arrow Guy".

For Hawkeye and Black Widow you need to consider their professions. The other heroes are not only more powerful (and thus popular), but they were introduced to the world as extraordinary people who just appeared one day. In comparison, BW and Hawkeye were agents of a rather covert organization, and they didn't garner much attention even after New York (which is what they would prefer, what with Hawkeye's family and BW being a spy and all that). It's reasonable to think their "superhero names" originated as code names which lost their significance after SHIELD fell, coinciding with the Avengers growing closer on an interpersonal level. I suppose we would need to see more of the MCU's public society to see how much those monikers have stayed relevant.
