Which is somewhat funny since "karking" is a generic expletive in the Star Wars universe.

I'm (too often) called a CarcAss for playing too agressive.

Another favorite name I've been called is a Carca-Jerk, on the BGG Carcassonne iOS tournament forums.

I must be doing something right to aggrevate others that much... ;D

Back in the day when we used to play Carcassonne at our house on a regular basis, my brother's friends kept saying klooster instead of cloister. Klooster is a Dutch surname which means monastery, and there was a girl in their class who had that surname.

"Cloister-f#%k" of course when there are too many cloisters next to each other.

We've officially renamed the Mayor "Cankles"

Carcassowned-when another player takes control of or wins your city or other feature using great tile placement.

What do other people refer to this move as (I mean more the process of trying to do it, whether it's successful or not)? We have been saying 'sneak attack.'

We call it "Glomming on".
