Default Re: coining a term for words like moran
If you want to get technical about it I believe the term for these is 'neologisms.' However this typically refers to spoken words IIRC. Also, these words are particularly devised as homophones for commonly misspelled words.

So, 'neohomophonisms' might work.

Or, to satisfy OOT, how about just 'H0MOisms'
