I'm not sure about "most." I'm more used to hearing "charter members," which is what we use. I'd never heard "founding fathers" until maybe 15 years ago, and it always sounded odd to me. Only one person in our fraternity is referred to as "Father." The rest of us, including charter members, are brothers.
Before initiation/granting of the charter, they are "colony members."
