There is a game called egg. where the egg goes in the middle between two people and no one gets it. and the feeder yells egg and they are both out. you see the question wasn't what does egg mean in the tennis language. its merely saying in the context of tennis. just like "Kick it" means something in cross country

In sports whats love mean?
Although tennis historians aren't sure exactly how the term "love" came to mean zero in tennis, the most plausible assumption seems to be that it's based on the French word "l'oeuf."Court tennis, an ancestor of most of today's racket games, originated in 14th century France. Pronounced correctly "l'oeuf"-meaning "egg"-sounds similar to "love." And the egg, which unquestionably looks like a zero, could have been used to describe a zero written on a scoreboard.Viper1
