The slang phrase "yegg" for burglar or safe-cracker originated in the United States around the early 20th century. It is believed to have originated from the name of a specific criminal, John Yegg, who was known for his involvement in safe-cracking activities. Over time, the term yegg became a widely used slang term for burglars and safe-crackers.
