Nicknames for KA Girls: Belle, Daughter of Lee, etc.

i graduated in '99, but my actaul little brother was a KA, so they asked me to be a "southern Belle." i guess they don't do that anymore? i had such a good time with those guys--lots of "responsibilities," but lots of fun too!!!

When I was in school in the 80s, they were called Southern Belles. Now that little sister groups are forbidden, I would doubt they would call women anything that could be construed as confering "little sisterhood" on them.
As a sidenote, the little sisters of my ex-husband's Sigma Chi chapter ended up founding the Delta Gamma chapter at our university. If you want a name or letters, do it for yourself and join a GLO that will be interested in developing you personally.

don't be sarcastic i know a lot of girls who have a large group of friends in the same fraternity and the "responsibilities" are nothing like what you just implied.

OP: we call them groupies at me school...the girls we call groupies are the ones that constantly try to rep a frat just because she's been accepted there. keep it moving honey, don't be a KA groupie! i don't see anything wrong with being close with a particular frat because that's just who you hang out with, but if you want to be greek, don't live vicariously through KA. find a GLO that fits you!

Right, I'm not stupid. I knew what she meant, it was just funny how the phrase accidentally came across and I wasn't being sarcastic.

sorry; you're right. what i said came out more aggressively than i intended it to. however, if you knew what she meant, why did you ask?

I like this advice. And it can sometimes be hard for a girl herself to know when her reputation may be slipping from one category (admired and honored friend of the group) to another (frat rat, groupie, etc.) since the distinctions aren't often based on real behavior but perceptions. Making sure you define yourself first with your own efforts and achievements is never a bad idea!
