AKO: It's actually a biblical reference, in classical Greek (that the Old Testament was originally written in) Alpha Kai Omega roughly translates "beginning and end." Which if you are familiar with the Bible is a term people used for God in Scripture. And no, I don't think the girls who created the club knew it was very similar to Alpha CHI Omega.

GammaPhi88: The different locations was for a purpose. My club is really small, as I mentioned before, and we usually extend bids to girls if they came to our rushes. So a lot of girls who didn't get their first choice bid, get a bid from us, and as most people who don't get their desired bid know, it's heartbreaking to see another group of people celebrating that they got the club they wanted while they didn't. And it also gives the members of our club who didn't pick it as their first choice to tell these girls about how this club may be the right place for them. I thought it was a good idea.
Alpha Chi Omega was originally founded as Alpha Kai Omega. The name was changed, I believe, around the time the first badge was commissioned.
