hiya sorry to intrude... adpi isn't a fraternity, we're a sorority, but as you've said
we weren't the first to be called that... in fact it was after the 1900's even began before we became a greek letter society, we were simply a (the first) secret society (the adephean society) for women. kappa alpha theta was the first Greek Letter Fraternity for women, founded from the beginning with that name.... and i too have heard that gamma phi beta was the first to be called a sorority from the beginning...
