Even WoW cannot do it.

Initially, World of Warcraft wasn't supposed to have "mobs". It was supposed
to have "creeps", because that's how they were called in Warcraft 3. The
devs used creeps all the time during alpha, and I think early beta.

Today, all the devs and community managers refer to mobs as... "mobs".
