NO
Mormon is a term used to refer to adherents of the Latter Day Saint movement (also referred to as Mormonism), and most commonly to the movement's original and largest group, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[1][2] According to church history, the term is derived from the Book of Mormon, a religious text that Joseph Smith, Jr. translated from ancient plates containing a history of the early inhabitants of the Americas that was compiled by a prophet called Mormon.[3] Mormons describe themselves as Christians[4][5].

For the same reason u bring up the question...it's an old Mormon in-joke...but in the BOM, there is no mention of that name. Cf Keep the Faith, Encyclopedia of Mormonism, Expanded Bible Dictionary, etc

No, the name Mormon, officially the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- Day Saints, refers to the name of somone, not "MorMEN" as opposed to "MorWOMEN" It's not a gender thing.

Perhaps. I also feel almost certain that women who go to Furman University (in Greeneville, South Carolina) are called Furwomen.
