Lol, yeah I did! I wanted my username to be FaithHopeLove and then picked random greek letters to make it look different - Apologies if I offended anyone

Therefore, you wouldn't necessarily need to give it a Greek letter chapter designation. As for the name of the actual sorority, if you're starting the whole thing from scratch (A HUGE UNDERTAKING!!), then you can name it anything you want, for whatever reason you wish.

I never thought of starting a Sorority, and I definitely won't now I just wanted to know what thoughts go into naming a Sorority because I'm new to Greek life and want to understand the naming process behind the Sororities I want to join so I don't get confused when I meet someone from a different chapter.

Thanks for all your help!

Well, just to let you know, your username actually is Fdith Hqpe Lole. Greek letters often look NOTHING like their English equivalents (despite what a passel of graphic design firms or clothing manufacturers would have you believe).

My username wasn't *supposed* to look like it contained the English equivalents of the Greek letters, it was supposed to look like I substituted the letters A, O, and V with symbols that *looked* like the English letters, not *translated* into English letters...

But why would you want to have a username that makes no sense? Greek letters aren't just fun symbols, they are letters in an alphabet.

It's kind of the equivalent of getting a Chinese tattoo that looks cool and then finding out it means "cabbage skyscraper" or something of the like.

Ok, I already apologised - I can't change it so can we just get over it now?
