Neologasm - The joy from the beautiful coming together of two words.
I quite enjoy blending two words. Anyone want to play?

Well and truly, lol! This was troubling me as well. A portmanteau is a neologism, but a neologism isn't necessarily a portmanteau. Another amusing thing, to me anyway, about the title is that I invented the word neologasm. Unfortunately, someone else did prior to my stroke of genius.
