Family Names

My family tree is splitting up in the fall, due to growing to a much larger size than every other family. I am currently the head of my family branch, so I'm in charge of choosing my family's name. However, I can't seem to decide on something. Some common interests in our branch are America, angels/birds/sky, and southern living. I can't really decide on a name that could incorporate all of these things, or any name in particular that would suit any of them. Any creative name suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

*Note: The angels/birds/sky is one that my family is very interested in, but we feel like it would be sort of offensive to other chapters on my campus to directly call us the Angel Family, Dove Family, Moon Family, etc.

As long as it's an internal chapter thing and you're not going to be walking around campus in jackets that say ANGELS in 2 foot high letters on the back, I don't think you need to worry about offending any other groups if those are the names you really like.

It would be cool to acknowledge that you are the offspring of another
family, for instance, if you're in the star family now, the new one can be the starlight family.
