What's this called?

What's it called where a winner shakes his own hand above his head as Calvin does here in the first panel?



And does anyone know where the custom came from? :confused:

Depends on the person doing it.

It could mean a universal "thank you" to all of their fans or well-wishers.

Or

It could be a symbol of self-importance and self-superiority.

Either way, its usually seen as a self indulgent move.

I don't what it's called, but surely it has a name (everything does)...but I got curious how this move was ever invented and became part of the popular culture, but how can I look into it when I don't even know what it's called? :confused:
