Mu or 無 is the kind of tempoary measure the translating team is using before we can be sure of what to call it in English. 無 literally means nothing, and when we were trying to come up with an equivalent English word, (Void, Null, Nothing, Nigh, Nihil) but there wasn't exactly an agreement. (Albeit Void seems to be the most favorable) Mu is the just he literally pronounciation of 無. And until we know more of what puppets have the typing of 無, we'll just be calling it Mu. Like say, if Koishi was Mu, it would likely be called Void, but Koishi wasn't in here so... we dunno yet.
