Well, mine is kind of obvious. One day, we were sitting at a table and we're loud. Someone referred to us as wild Indians. Thus, I designated us a tribe instead of a pledge/new member class and everyone gave each other nicknames.

Since I'm black and I'm obsessed with cute white guys, my sisters dubbed me 'Feening White Chocolate' which was later shorted to just White Chocolate(our advisor didn't like the 'feening' part). They decorated our door and put everyone's tribal name on it.

It was cute until our advisors suggested that it was offensive. Weird since I'm 1/8 Choctaw Indian and I came up with us being a tribe.

your post is very interesting...from the "wild Indians" part to the "I'm black and I'm obsessed with cute white guys...my sisters...."

If you're 1/8 Choctaw Indian, you should know that, in general, Native Americans prefer NOT to be referred to as "tribes."
