Old guy from the West Virginia/Western Pennsylvania tradition of geetars and such once informed me that Mother Maybelle's style of picking, using Thumbpick with the fingernails of the other fingers like that was called, "Frailing".

There is also a banjo style known as Frailing, pretty much the same idea but with or without the thumb pick.
