Some of those "jargons" would better be classified as a "figure of speech".

Jargon refers more accurately to a set of words or specialized language used exclusively by a particular group of people. SNAFU, Elevator pitch, *.elfie could be used by anybody, they're not considered jargon.

"monkey-patch" and "spike" might be considered developer jargon.

Jargon should only be plural if you are specifically referring to more than one specialized language or jargon.

can anybody please suggest any other frequently used jargons by us ?

I don't know what jargons you use, but scientific jargon, IT jargon and law jargon are some of those I hear more or less regularly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jargon

About terms from IT jargon mentioned in the article, you got monkey patching wrong. It's not about temporary fixing something.
