I know.. I know... I shouldn't make generalizations like that. How common then is nicknaming in IFC/NPC orgs?

A lot of the fraternities on my campus did it (basically in the same way as the scene in Animal House). Depending on the group and the person, some were internal, some everyone on campus used. There are Crow brothers I've never called by their real name in my life. Sororities didn't make it a point to give nicknames, but there were definitely girls that had them, and as I said, some were internal and some everyone knew. I think it varies from campus to campus.
