Preemie

  1. A young male adult who has not gone on a mission, but soon will.

This term is generally only used at the Brigham Young University campuses and is normally only applied to freshmen students. Interestingly enough, the Church has recently lowered its age limits to allow 18-year-old males and 19-year-old females to serve missions so only time will tell if this moniker will continue to be in widespread use at BYU.
