What is that gesture called?

I don't know what light it might throw on the term for it, but one
application of this gesture used to be seen in street demos where there
were signs "Honk for ______" ("Choice," as it might be, or "Peace.")  Semi
drivers operating their air horns apparently with some overhead apparatus
made the gesture &/or we would prompt them to with the gesture.
The double pump went with the expression "Hubba hubba!" back in the '40s,
according to my husband, especially in sports contexts.
