I only mentioned the Tennessee state and Omicron tradition because its one of the interesting/fun traditions chapters adopted when choosing a chapter name. There is also those chapters who choose their chapter name honoring their school (Nu Iota, Epsilon Chi, Lambda Upsilon, Iota Sigma, etc). You also have a bunch of Kentucky chapters that have Omega in their names - to give a number of examples AOII has. Other groups have somewhat similar traditions as well. Alpha Gamma Delta, I believe that's the group which does this, names chapters alphabetically but regionally as well (so Epsilon Alpha could be older than Gamma Alpha due to different regions). Or Delta Phi Epsilon which named their chapters alphabetically starting with single letters, the doubles starting with Delta, Phi and Epsilon before starting the double letter Alphas (so Delta Alpha is older than Alpha Alpha).

That's exactly the one I thought you were talking about!

That's cool. Every once in awhile you hear about a chapter that falls in order so that you can make something like that work out.
