Some mishaps that I have encountered:
Alpha Phi Omega is called either APO or A - Phi - Q. A -Phi - Q is most common with the HBCU all male chapters. One day I was at a mall, I was wearing my APO jersey and the letters were made from this really cute teddy bear fabric. (Of course, I had the matching shorts!) These two guys approached me telling me that I needed to stop perping because I was not an A - Phi - Q. I said you're right I'm an APO and walked off!
Alpha Omicron Pi - Alphas, Alpha O, Alpha Omega Pi
Pi Kappa Phi is known as either Pi Kapp or Pike. (Some places tease and call them the boy Pi Phis.) Those same nicknames I have heard applied to Pi Kappa Alpha.
Theta Phi Alpha - Theta Phi or Theta
I think the funniest thing happened to a friend of mine. He was wearing an AXO grub shirt with the letters written in Greek. A girl walked up to him and asked what's the "A" for? Apparently, she never knew there was an AXO.
