Man these are horrible names ya'll. I know one time someone sent me a neophyte flyer and it had all the guys lines names and they were just terrible. The one that stuck out in my mind was "out to lunch." But I've also seen people who didn't go through any type of real process walk around with made up line #'s and their real names on their backs. So I dunno which is worse.

ClassyLady, that's awful!!!

In TBS, "Mama" let us choose our own names & we helped each other choose what fit them. I got to choose my deuce's name (Harlequin) and my tre's (The Good One- (sarcasm intended))

Sorhors and Sisterfriends,

I have checked the previous post and I can't believe that chapters would actually give names like that N.E.W Addition and S. Surplus. Sometimes black folks can be so cruel and degrading to one another. That's not even funny or right and that is someone's child they are hurting. Shame on those Greeks and their messed up mentality!

Sometimes people can be so void of anything that remotely resembles a thought process!! These people need to get lives for themselves and stop trying to mess up other peoples lives! My big sister gave me a name that she believed fit who I was as a whole person. She said "you are the most UNIQUE person I know and I think it is a refreshing change from the norm" and with that I was dubbed UNIQUE! I thought that was the sweetest gesture and it really showed that she loved me and was proud to call me her SoRHOr. Who knew a simple name could do all that!!

The Alphas at my alma mater used to get some messed-up line names. Off the top of my head, I can remember "Girl Scout", "Drama Queen", "Best Supporting Actress", "Halatosis"(sp?), "Tig Ole Biddies", "Oxy-5000", and a bunch of others. They would all switch to a name with "Ice" in it and get put that on their nalia afterwards, but of course most of us would remember their original, unflattering line name and coming out skit.

Well, my chapter is known for giving line names that are not the nicest. Hence, my line name "Ms. Hanky." But, what can ya do? It's just a chapter tradition. And, although our names aren't always nice they are never innapropriate (sexually explicit or anything else that would misrepresent DST). Sometimes it's frustrating b/c I see ppl with line names like "unbreakable" who don't deserve that name AT ALL! But, such is life. Also, we have other names that are even more dear to us and are always positive so I guess they balance each other out.

I have to say this is the most interesting post. I really enjoy reading line names good or bad. The worst is Tarnished Pearl. I wont talk too much about it but we always get a bad line name thats a secret... and when we come out we get our good line name that is appropriate.

I think some names that will really shock you are the names of the graduate chapter members. I have heard one I.W.H.A. short for It Wont Happen Again... But it did have meaning for some line stuff they did. And another is "Silly Lilly" But they dont wear their names nor do they tell them.

" I.W.H.A. short for It Wont Happen Again" is crazy. You only get to come out once and that's somethin that everyone will remember.

i saw this chick's line shirt in passing - her line name was "nasty girl"

now why would you let someone up in your org if you thought about her like that? even as a joke, really?

another one - a friend of a friend jus crossed and his line name was "20-year-old virgin" WTH?! that is messed up, why put your business out there like that?

cjoanell · #15 07-28-2006, 09:33 PM

because people don't think or care and get off on putting others down.
