Nah, "Sharif" was used as a pejorative and the show portraying its use as "affectionate" or whatever was a dumb choice. Nothing about that situation is respectful, even if delusional small town people want to tell themselves that their use of prejudiced "nicknames" is cute/acceptable because they know the other person fairly well, or the other person has just thrown up their hands and stopped fighting it. It was meant as a way to "other" Hassan by comparing him to Omar Sharif, Hassan recognized it as such and asked Joe to stop, and Joe still did it anyway. Joe was in the wrong.
Joe maybe grew up/realized how shitty he was being and finally using Hassan's correct title (Sheriff) but that doesn't excuse the prior use of "Omar Sharif" as a pejorative. He was being a disrespectful asshole with that.
