Best non-letter nicknames

Help me out if I missed any. Non "letter" nicknames:

- Lambchops (LXA)
- Squids (KS)
- Snakes (SN)
- Sigs (SX)
- Pikes (PKA)
- Skulls (PKS)
- Deke (DKE)
- Dukes, Ducks (DU)
- FIJI (PGD)
- Sammy (SAM)
- Teke (TKE)

I can't think of Sorority ones for some reason. Anyone?

Along the same lines as Teke and Deke, there's Zete (Zeta Psi, pronounced "Zate").

We always call LXA "lambs" at my school.

Delta Sigma Phi has the funniest nickname. About half of the campus calls them "Digs". I originally heard that this was because they had a reputation for burying their pledging in the sand. Not sure if its true, but they hate the nickname and try to promote "Delta Sig" instead.

SNAKEY K! That may be the funniest and most awesome nickname we have. I'd never heard it before reading Jen's site so I LOL'd pretty hard.

Wright State...

When I attended there...a whole lotta years ago...(early 1980s)

there was a local fraternity "Beta Phi Omega" and we all called them the
"Bar Flies".
