Etymology

The term mugwump may be derived from the Mugwumps, a group of nineteenth-century American politicians who were against political corruption. That term comes from the Algonquin word mugguomp, meaning "person of importance" or "war leader."[2] There was also a group of British pacifists who joined the Labour Party after World War I who were called Mugwumps.[3]
