It depends on the level that you want your local to be a part of the new national's (hypothetically speaking) chapter. Your new members would have to learn about the founding of your local and things about it since it is a part of your chapter's history. If the sorority doesn't have a national mascot, and your local does, they may even let you use your local's mascot as the chapters mascot. When an NPC sorority tried to colonize my local about 8 or so years ago, they were going to let us do that. Some nationals might even let you use the name as part of the chapter name. A group of guys wanted to start a local fraternity at my school that they called SND, when the school told them they had to affiliate with a national, they became ZY and they are the ND in order to assimilate the original local's name.
