His dad was a Pike.

I've had some of the same thoughts about how a Phi Mu baby name would be difficult.

Me and my chapter sisters went through and thought up names for the different NPCs one day. I think there is actually a thread regarding that in this forum if someone wants to search. Anyway, our Pi Phi one was Patsy Betsy Phyllis. Isn't it horrid???

I wonder if any of my sisters would name their children names that start with an E, an S or a P/F. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they named their pets Tiger/Tigress, Diamond or Diamante or Emerald.

Oh, come on, you know you want to name your son Sir Fideles (I think i spelled that right, if not, I apologize)....

And Shiela, I know you're son's name is going to be Hermes....

I would possibly think about giving a daughter the middle name Pearl...but Pearl is also a family name.

Eugenia Tucker Fitzgerald
Mary Evans Glass
Sophronia Woodruff Dews
Octavia Andrews Rush
Ella Pierce Turner
Elizabeth Williams Mitchell

were the Founders of Alpha Delta Pi. If I was going that route, I'd probably go with Sophronia & really mess up the kid's life!

I don't know anyone who has intentionally named their daughters after an AOII founder. However, my best friend who was an AOII and her mom was an AOII and her aunt was an AOII, her name is Elizabeth. I personally like the name Helen or Stella. I think they are classic names. Anyway...
Our Founder's:
Jessie Wallace Hughan
Helen St.Clair Mullan
Stella George Stern Perry
Elizabeth Haywood Wyman

Oh and this is funny, on the New Member's test this past Fall 2003, some of the new members wrote Helen St.Clair Muller...my last name is Muller. Anyway, I thought it was funny...

Our founder's names are:

Maud Jones Horner
Della Lewis Hundley
Alice Bland Coleman
Ethel Coleman Van Name
Alice Grey Welsh
Mary Jones Batte
Helen Crafford
Frances Yancey Smith
Ruby Leigh Orgain

I know they were all lovely ladies but I wouldn't name my kid after them. The only ones I'd maybe consider are Alice or Mary. The rest sound like a 80-something year old's name.

This is something I've never thought about before, but then I had a scary realization. Alpha Gam has 11 founders, and my family shares names with SIX of them. To wit: I have a Marguerite, an Emily, a Jennie, several Marys, and a Georgia as relatives.

Wow. Maybe it really was fate that I became an Alpha Gam????
