I believe the answer is:

middle name

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'extra designation which each other across answer has here' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'cocktail of lime men add' is the wordplay.
'cocktail of' is an anagram indicator (a mixture of the letters).
'lime'+'men'+'add'='limemenadd'
'limemenadd' is an anagram of 'MIDDLE NAME'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for middle name that I've seen before include "Richard Nixon's was Milhous" , "Part of how someone is known" .)
