A good friend of mine (a Kappa Delta) thought that I was in Alpha Delta Pi for weeks before she saw my license plate bracket that says Alpha OMICRON Pi (and I have been wearing letter sweatshirts, etc). People misreading letters willhappen no matter what and so you need to decide on letters that represent what you stand for, not appearances
I agree! Some of my friends from back home still think I'm a member of Alpha Delta Phi (yes, a male fraternity, but they didn't know that) and I always tell them it's Alpha Delta Pi

like Beryana mentioned people will misread letters no matter what the combination, so if you've found letters that fit your organization, I would say go for it!

side note of ADPi history: Interestingly enough, Alpha Delta Pi used to be Alpha Delta Phi before it was changed to avoid confusion with the male fraternity
