I would not do this, UNLESS you had the actual documents from the sorority's national HQ explaining the ritual, symbols etc and approval of the sorority's members (or their descendants).

It's a sweet idea, but most likely it would split 50/50 between people who think you're paying a tribute and people who think you're copycatting or stealing.

I know this is not the intention, but I keep thinking - great plot for a zombie movie - "Night of the Living Iota"...

Dozens of "undead" sorority sisters roaming a college campus looking to feast on the brains of living sisters.

If anyone decides to make this movie, I want a 5% cut of the royalties.

Use a "real" sorority's name and you will have a lawsuit to enjoy.

Well, also many NPCs didn't just "die" - they were absorbed by other groups. Using the symbols/rituals/name of one of these absorbed groups might be a great way to find yourself in hot water with the organization that absorbed them originally.
