Line names weren't a big thing on my campus, although a few of the fraternities had pledge class names (which I think is essentially the same thing).

One of the fraternities had each pledgeclass paint a brick in their chapter room with their pledgeclass name & then everyone in the class' nickname. (It was a small school... not like there were ever more than 15-20 people in a pledgeclass!) I always thought that was kind of cool, to look around and see the names of all the brothers before them. And some of the class names and nicknames were pretty funny!

Tom, I believe that "line name" essentially means "pledge class name".

Our pledge class name is the legwarmers mainly because we are all children of the 80's

This is a question that may have been posed to the BGLO's. A line name is the name given to individuals that is indictitive of their actions on line. My line name was KluLiSS because I didn't have a clue most nights.

My chapter doesn't give pledge class names.. (if that is the same thing as a line name) because they feel it seperates the new members from the actives.. so they stopped doing it... I believe it was always just a letter of the greek alapabet though.. they never gave their class a nick name or anything like that I don't think..
