Dysphemism - -the substitution of an offensive or disparaging term for an inoffensive one.

Most deliberately abusive swearing involves the use of dysphemisms (for example, using "fucking nitwit" for "not so bright"; or, saying someone "fucking finally kicked the bucket" instead of the softer "he passed away.")
