Crimeney, but that is ugly.

"Crimony" :-)

Okay.  Google has 424 for _crimony_ and only 41 for _crimeney_.  :-)

FWIW: "criminy"  ;-)

In Dutch, it is "Crimineel!", which can be understood as 
"How terrible!" or "How cruel!", and the like.

Phonetically: <crimma-nale>.

Well, that sounds related to "criminal."

I thought the whole while it was yet another euphemism for Jesus Christ,
a la "Jiminy Cricket!"  (Thanks, Walt Disney.)
