Many mobile apps implement this type of design.
These imgur screenshots show the sliding navbar for a youtube channel. Is there a proper name for this design?

The pattern, as it appears here in the YouTube mobile app, is based on Google's Material Design language.
That navigation element is called a 'Tab Bar'
And the scrolling version is called a 'Scrolling Tab Bar'
See diagrams on this page for reference: https://material.io/guidelines/components/tabs.html#tabs-usage

This is not a pattern based on Google's design language. It's older than that, and been used in other mediums (PCs, Web) long before smartphones.– ConfusedMar 7, 2018 at 6:41
