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").

Squids?! Where does THAT come from...we just call them "Kappa Sigs"

and Dukes?! We call them either just "D.U." or some people call them "Ducks"

I've heard all the rest....too bad nobody calls us something cool like "Snakes" on my campus though....
