What do you call two innocent words that form profanity when said together?

This is for work, believe it or not.

I need to know what you call it when two innocent words said together would warrant soap in the mouth from your mother. For example "blow" and "job", fine on their own, rated R when together.

Thanks in advance!

ass (donkey) and hole?

Yeah that counts. I need to know what these phrases are called. The closest I have been able to come up with is "profane collocation".

Cock (as in male chicken) sucker?

LOL the purpose of the thread was to know what the phrase is called, but I won't be a kill joy (see what I did there? ). Actually, this does help me to catch ones I may not think of, so yeah! Keep 'em comin'! Racially insensitive phrases as well are needed, but let's leave those out of this thread.

The "cock" ones are easy because "cock" within itself can be classified as a swear. Same with "ass" and "dick", so those are easy to catch. It's the ones where the two words are completely innocent.

Have you posted it in reddit yet? Interesting that nothing shows up on google.

 

[Seattle_Stranger]

Totally, right after you suggested it.
