Letters written out in script

Here is how it's been explained to me. The word "sorority," coined for my organization, means sisterhood in latin. Some sororities decided that it made no sense to have a greek name, yet adopt the new latin "sorority" label. So, they decided to stick with "fraternity." However since "fraternity" is also latin, I don't understand this explanation.

I think it could just be because "fraternity" was an accepted, well-known term, and so some sororities decided to call themselves "fraternities" because they figured outsiders would better understand what their organization was if they had that label.
