BraveMaroon, I swear to you that when she was born, I saw that name in the Auburn Alum Magazine and asked my husband why on earth anyone would name their kid Pepper WarEagle!!!!
The KDs at State pledged one named Ida Cline! (She became Homecoming Queen.)
In our chapter house had a composite from the 1970's that we did not put in storage because there was a girl on it whose name was Mary Christmas. I would have held a life long grudge against my parents if they had done that me...image the first day of school the teacher calls Mary Christmas and all the kids snicker.

Re legacy policies, I almost think a better idea would be to have each chapter adopt how far out they want to go. For example...XYZ at Ole Miss could probably fill 2 pledge classes worth with legacies - they might want to say a legacy is only mom or sister, period. But XYZ at Drexel probably isn't going to have that amount of legacies coming through, so they might want to say granddaughters/nieces are legacies too.
The problems with that, of course, are 1) uninformed sisters 2) pledging someplace where you are a legacy and trying to transfer someplace where you're not. There doesn't seem to be a good way to resolve it.
