Requirements to be called 'Lama'

I was thinking about Tibetan titles and couldn't find any resource that explained if there is a process to being called a Lama. Would anyone know if there is such a process in any of the particular schools? Or is it more of a general title one just comes to be called after teaching for however long? There's a process to earning the title Geshe/Geshema or Khenpo/Khenmo in the Gelug and Kagyu schools respectively and was curious if one receives the title Lama in a similar fashion.
