Answer:
Metonymy
Metonymy literally means a change of name. In metonymy an object is denoted by the name of something which is generally associated with it.
For example
The Bench, for the judges
The laurel, for success
Bluejackets, for sailors
Red-coats, for British sailors
The Crown, for the king
Since there are different kinds of association between objects, there are
several varieties of metonymy. For example, a metonymy may result from the use of the sign for the person or thing symbolized.

attention to a point.

ridicule.
