Add custom data label in ggplotly scatterplot

1. Tooltip

You can change the tooltip in a number of ways, as described here. To just show Species in the tooltip, something like this should work:

library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)
p1 <- ggplot(iris, aes_string(x = "Sepal.Length", 
                                y = "Sepal.Width",
                                key = "Species")) +
      geom_point()
ggplotly(p1, source = "select", tooltip = c("key"))

2. Persistent Label

I'm not sure how to leave the plotly tooltip on the point upon clicking, but you could use a plotly click event to get the clicked point and then add a geom_text layer to your ggplot.

3. Minimal Example

I've adapated your code to make a simpler example. Generally, it's helpful if you create a minimal example and remove sections of your app that aren't needed to recreate your question (e.g. changing fonts).

library(shiny)
library(plotly)
library(ggplot2)

ui <- fluidPage(
  plotlyOutput("iris")
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
  output$iris <- renderPlotly({
      # set up plot
      p1 <- ggplot(iris, aes_string(x = "Sepal.Length", 
                                    y = "Sepal.Width",
                                    key = "Species")) +
          geom_point()

      # get clicked point
      click_data <- event_data("plotly_click", source = "select")
      # if a point has been clicked, add a label to the plot
      if(!is.null(click_data)) {
          label_data <- data.frame(x = click_data[["x"]],
                                   y = click_data[["y"]],
                                   label = click_data[["key"]],
                                   stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
         p1 <- p1 + 
             geom_text(data = label_data,
                       aes(x = x, y = y, label = label),
                       inherit.aes = FALSE, nudge_x = 0.25)
      }
      # return the plot
      ggplotly(p1, source = "select", tooltip = c("key"))
  })
  }

shinyApp(ui, server)

Edit: Keep All Labels

You can store each click in a reactive data.frame using reactiveValues and use this data.frame for your geom_text layer.

library(shiny)
library(plotly)
library(ggplot2)

ui <- fluidPage(
    plotlyOutput("iris")
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
    # 1. create reactive values
    vals <- reactiveValues()
    # 2. create df to store clicks
    vals$click_all <- data.frame(x = numeric(),
                                y = numeric(),
                                label = character())
    # 3. add points upon plot click
    observe({
        # get clicked point
        click_data <- event_data("plotly_click", source = "select")
        # get data for current point
        label_data <- data.frame(x = click_data[["x"]],
                                 y = click_data[["y"]],
                                 label = click_data[["key"]],
                                 stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
        # add current point to df of all clicks
        vals$click_all <- merge(vals$click_all,
                                label_data, 
                                all = TRUE)
    })
    output$iris <- renderPlotly({
        # set up plot
        p1 <- ggplot(iris, aes_string(x = "Sepal.Length", 
                                      y = "Sepal.Width",
                                      key = "Species")) +
            geom_point() + 
            # 4. add labels for clicked points
            geom_text(data = vals$click_all,
                      aes(x = x, y = y, label = label),
                      inherit.aes = FALSE, nudge_x = 0.25)
        # return the plot
        ggplotly(p1, source = "select", tooltip = c("key"))
    })
}

shinyApp(ui, server)
