"The first child born of an Alpha Xi Delta Founder was Born to Harriet and her husband on July 1, 1898. She named her daughter Marion Alpha Gossow, in honnor of Alpha Xi Delta." - Alpha Xi Delta - A 100 Year History
So naming a child after our sorority has happened. I don't know if i could name my child Alpha but Lowry wouldn't be to much of a strech b/c it is a family name for me (but spelled differently). I love the names Elisabeth and Maude. The only thing with Maude is that you would have to be very strong little girl to put up that name. But if I have a little girl, I already have her named picked out - Melissia Theresa. There is no danger of my first daughter being named after my sorority but the second girl . . .
