It wasn't until they crossed them sands that they were able to pick their own names. But Pledge Class name was supposed to represent something positive about that line.



My chapter had rules about the line names also. When we Ivys, we were given our line names by our big sisters and because we practice being discreet, we would NEVA be allowed to tell people those names. When we became AKA's, we got a chance to choose our own names. (thank GOD because, well...let's just say somethings shouldn't be repeated...

You are absolutely right about being discreet, our names were not publicly shouted out (the majority of the time...LOL .) You know boys being boys and wanting to impress the females on campus by having the pledge lines do skits and what not... you was never called by your real name so the Little Brother name was called. Unfortunately...my sweetheart line made us pillows with our pledge names. Aw Shucks....LOL. Some of us replaced the name.

Folks,

I'm just amazed about some of the interesting, to say the least, line names. I must be getting really old!

I cant believe some of yall actually got to choose your own line names! That is unimaginable! If that woulda been the case in my chapter we woulda had crazy names like Nupeoleon, Nuperman and Nupetastik! In my chapter the DP chooses all....and everyone generally gets two names. I enjoy seeing other ppl's names but i havent run into as many "bad" ones like discussed on here. I think most people who have "bad" names just make up an alias to put on their jacket anyways so nobody knows.
