`Name-calling' is a idiom in English that means applying insulting
words to people.  `Name-calling' does not necessarily entail naming
specific persons, who in this case you implied by context.

I know English may not be your first language, so here's a couple of
dictionary entries if you would like to read further:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/name-calling
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/name-calling

If you want to argue semantics about how to describe how you're being
insulting before you apologize, please take it off the list.
