    Mugger hasn't the negative and violent connotation to me. I kind of like it, a lot.

     Most people that are members of AnswerMug know that (Mugger) is a term of endearment so-to-speak, so it holds no negative connotations for them.

    I think Mugger is ok I would leave it alone even Trump hasn't said anything negative about it so it must be a good word.
