What is your family name?
 
My organization has a tradition that every family has a family name. I was just wondering what other people's family names are (sororities AND fraternities)!

Mine is the sheep family (in honor of the family's "black sheep," she was so different from everyone else in the family, but we love her anyway!)

We are the Cross Family. :)

Co-sign. My letters are quite enough for me, thank you.

We never had family names at my chapter.

Well I'll go ahead and chime in that I've never heard of a decent (not even good, just decent) fraternity chapter in the SEC who had family names.

We are the Manson Family and we only date members of the Fratrick Bateman Family. Strictly top tier!

The only problem you run into with that is this:

There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there.

The Ashby Tree. (Named after the actual person we can trace our lineage to)

That was APO. I don't have a family or a tree in Alpha, but some chapters do.

No way - that's the same as mine!

OP: I wonder if your boyfriend has checked out this thread? Do you think he is going to? Wait...you didn't make this so he could steal someone else's family name, did you??

Nah, that would be pretty low. And very transparent.

:rolleyes:

Pssst . . .last time I checked, Elon wasn't in the SEC.

33girl 07-13-2008 10:48 PM

We did not have family names in ASA or APO. We all bought the same shirt or sweatshirt for our littles, but that was it.

kvitne: credit for being a fast learner, dude.

The OP is lucky this isn't FH. Steve Zissou would have outed him by now.

I don't know where the hell he thought CB insulted his chapter.

Where's Xylochick? Shes from Elon, right?
