G* moths were named such because they were crop destroyers, just like the stereotype of the people the term was used against. So even when you pull the string, it all comes down to a slur.

"The etymology of the common name is not well established, though it is likely applied to characterize the peripatetic behavior of the species. Gypsy is also a brown color that is approximates the color of the adult male and of the pupate forms. The name Gypsy is an abbreviation of the French word for Egyptian, though the Gypsies originally entered Europe from India in the 14th Century."

The part about them being crop destroyers comes, as you will see in the link, from the latin name. The stigma of gypsies being thieves is much more recent than the discovery and common naming of this moth.
