Pi Rho, Delta Iota Kappa, Alpha Sigma Sigma, Tri Chi, or even Gamma Delta Iota. That last one is because there are 30+ Greeks on our campus that have transferred in and the Greek community will not let us join their houses or participate in any Greek activities.
Only you can decide what name to go with, although I'd avoid all the ones you suggested.

Another idea -- "Wandering Greek" or "Homeless Greek" organizations used to be common on many college campuses. (I seem to remember there were some other names as well, but I can't remember what they might have been.) They were for transfer students who were members of fraternities or sororities not represented on their new campus. They typically participated in Greek Week and other activities just as if they were a fraternity or sorority chapter. Often, they had a rep on Panhell or IFC. It was a way for transfer students to participate in Greek life without having to "replace" the groups into which they had been initiated. I can remember yearbook pages for such organizations where there was a list of all the fraternities represented in the Wandering Greeks.

Might your school be open to something like this?

Either way, definitely associate with and stay active in the Mid-Ohio Valley Area Alumni Association.
