So like if Billy Maximoff comes back in the MCU and gets his comics codename "Wiccan" how are actual Wiccans gonna feel about that

Yes, but there AREN'T people named "Wiccan". Plus those people usually *are* Christian, and this isn't isn't a real person or even his real name. It's a code name It's a *choice*, and one based on preconceptions about a real group of people

I guess I see your point. I was raised in Wicca and don't really think it's a big deal, but others might?

I mean they actually had a thing in the comics where Billy was like "Now that I think about it, even though I named myself after having witch-like powers that came to me naturally, if I'm gonna keep using the name maybe I should actually study Wicca"

But then no one actually wanted to pick up that hook so he didn't

Looks like they shouldn't, since based on your description, they conflated Wicca with witchcraft? I'm a witch but not a Wiccan. Wicca is a religion, witchcraft is, well, a craft. It's a mistake plenty of people make.
