To use someone's birth name as a pejorative term. The main example of this is the common birth name Karen which is now used as a synonym for racist/bitch. Since 2020, use of the name Karen has expanded and is now commonly used to insult any woman with whom one disagrees. Women and girls who are actually named Karen have been subject to verbal and physical harassment due to the trend of name shaming.
