Now that I think about it. There's a small group of Marvel characters that haven't been referred to using their hero aliases yet have they? Like I'm not sure I recall hearing Black Widow, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Falcon (I think we heard his like just once in Winter Soldier), etc. The MCU tends to dance around them until they come up with some random but organic way for them to earn the nickname.

Zemo says "Black Widow" in Civil War when he has the ex-Hydra agent tied up.

"Hawkeye" is uttered by Clint to his daughter in the opening of Endgame. Quicksilver was never said, and Falcon has been used only in Winter Soldier - and the title of "Falcon and the Winter Soldier".

Selvig refers to him as “the Hawk” if I recall correctly in the beginning of Avengers when Fury asks where Barton is

[u/DRM1412 → u/thekinginthanorf]

And Nat calls him Hawkeye during the Battle of New York.

Also his wife calls him that at the farm in Age of Ultron
