Unfortunately, the term already exists as a pejorative, not a term of endearment at all. It refers to the "cheap seats," where people could eat peanuts at vaudeville performances, and throw same at bad acts. The term is now widely used to refer to ignorant critics whose opinion isn't worth much.

Sorry, Humpty Dumpty, you can't just make up meanings.
