My guess is that LXA is called Lamb Chops because it kind of fits the letters:
LAMBda CHi ---> LAMB CHops
I've also heard various nicknames for SAE and Sig Eps, such as Sigma Alpha Everyone or Sigma Pledge Everyone. I've also heard them called Sigma Phi HairSalon or Sigma Alpha HairSalon (I guess it depends on if the particular chapter is considered "preppy" on their campus).
My house, Sigma Tau Gamma, was sometimes called "Super Tough Guys." I'm not sure if it's meant to be derogatory or not. It probably is. I also heard of another nickname that we were called back before I joined, but I don't want to print it here because it was a racist nickname that made a reference to the ethnicity of our house.
