What have people thought your letters spelled?

Just reading the thread about letters on your butt and a person thinking SDT's letters spelled "eat" made me wonder what words people have come up with that they thought your letters spelled?

I'll start. I have a key chain that says I heart DPhiE but in the Greek letters. I once had a girl say" What does that say~~I love earth?" I also had someone say it looked like "APE" was spelled on my chest

Chideltjen is a screenname I have on another board. It's not greek, so I've been referred to as Chid for short.

I've also heard "Chie" rather than "Kai." I actually a friend say "you don't pronounce chinese food 'Kai-neese food.'"

ETA: for the letters themselves... I've heard we're the X triangle sorority or the X-Change sorority. (Joke for all the math majors out there...)

We had an officer retreat a few years back where some kids came looking for the "E N" Party.

Most non-greeks I encounter usually have that funny look on their face. They just ask "what sorority is that?".

I worked for a french company a few years ago, and apparently "ZOB" is slang for a part of the male anatomy.
