My chapter gives out nicknames. It's not a national thing though, just something our chapter decided to do. They are called sisternames, and we get them at initiation. They aren't part of the true ritual of initiation, but we get them during initiation. Your big sis is generally the one who comes up with it. Mine is Band Aid. =) After the New members get their names all the other girls go around and tell how they got their names. No one is supposed to know the story behind the names besides initiated sisters. I think it is a very cool thing, and fun to find out the stories behind everyone's name and get to learn a little bit more about them. We don't do much with them after that for some reason, (excepting some people put them on their paraphanalia) but I think we should use them more often.
