A soft headed hammer used in engineering and a wooden hammer used in croquet and polo.

I assume you mean Mallet. A Mallet is a type of Hammer from the Latin Malus. The term is also applied to an articulated steam locomotive with two or more powered sets of drive wheels like the Y-2B (2-8-8-2) or the celebrated Big Boy (4-8-8-4) it should be correctly pronounced as (Mahl-lay) in the French but hey it's the USA and Mallet is the proper usage.
