Cledonism is the use of circumlocution to avoid saying unlucky words. For example, calling the devil “Old Nick” or saying “baker’s dozen” instead of thirteen. The Roman god Orcus was referred to as “Pluto”, “the rich one”, in Latin.
What about those who don’t have any unlucky words at all, but may still stutter???!!!!
