There actually is a multicultural sorority named Lambda Phi Xi and at least one of its founders is a member of GC. (although she doesnt frequent very often)

Yes, I have heard this and wondered how the both of you can have the same letters. Is it because they are a fraternity or because they are a professional organization?

Sigma Chi was originally named Sigma Phi at its founding. Our founders were unaware that there was already a Sigma Phi fraternity. Shortly after our founding, a rival fraternity (Beta Theta Pi was the prime suspect) broke into their chapter room and stole our constitution/ritual. The founders rewrote the ritual and renamed the fraternity Sigma Chi.

I think that because it is a fraternity and we are a sorority that makes a difference, since the whole name is put into the incorporation papers, i.e., Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated.

Something I always thought was pretty unique about Lambda Chi is that we actually kicked out our founder Warren A. Cole b/c he wouldn’t sign over royalty rights to our badge and other jewelry. His membership was reinstated in the 50’s before his death I believe.
