Why is Black Panther called Black Panther and not just Panther? Are you saying they souldn't call him Black Panther for the same reason that Sam isn't Black Falcon? There are some characters whose code names are/contain a color as part of the name. Black Panther is one, White Wolf is another (who is a character from the comics). Now, why exactly the Wakandans started calling Bucky that on the whole, don't know for sure yet - there's still a lot of Bucky's recovery in Wakanda during the 2 years between Civil War and Infinity War that we haven't see.... it does seem like it was the children (in their innocence) were the ones to start using the moniker first (in the post credit scene from Black Panther) - and he may have been the first white man those kids had ever seen in person - there may be another reason for the name other than just him being a white man, we don't know (yet? - who knows maybe Sam will ask him about it one day). Either way, he's accepted it as their name for him and recognizes that them giving him a name is an honor.I don’t get the White Wolf nickname. It seemed like they only called him that because he was the only white guy in Wakanda. They shouldn’t call him that for the same reason they didn’t call Sam “Black Falcon”.

I mean, you aren't entirely wrong, but I feel like its a forgivable name and situation. Not only is it made clear that the various relevant Wakandans do hold Bucky as a person of both sympathy and respect ( and so the naming lacks malice ), but it also reflects on that Wakanda is not some perfect utopia. The Wakandans can have their own implicit cultural and racial biases, and thus it works as a harmless "Huh, so that's how it feels" bit of role reversal.
