The Alpha Chi Omega/Chi Omega thing made it so hard for me to search for gifts for my daughters online, even when I put Chi Omega in quotes!

There was a problem at the last college I taught at with this. There had been a Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia chapter there forever and they called themselves Phi Mus, even though I've heard that most chapters call themselves Sinfonians. So when a Phi Mu chapter colonized, there were obviously problems!

In an advanced search (on some websites) you can search for:
Chi Omega -Alpha

The first time I went through the PM process in Sinfonia, one of the other PMs called us Phi Mu once, at which point i shut him down and said to never say that again because it was the name of a sorority.

What about Kappa Alpha and Kappa Alpha Theta. Also Phi Sigma Kappa and Sigma Kappa. Finally, Phi Kappa Sigma and Kappa Sigma.

Although not really a subset, I keep getting tons of Tri-Delta hits when I have been searching for DTD stuff for my son.
