In the alternative, a "peristeri" is also New Testament Greek for "dove," which again is one of Sigma Kappa's symbols. Even "eirini," meaning "peace" could be construed as alluding to Sigma Kappa because the dove is an international symbol of peace. I can't stress strongly enough that this is NOT kosher.
cristinasmile, I understand that you are feeling defensive right now, but you have to understand that you seem to be telling us one thing and doing another.
I'm not a Sigma Kappa, but I'm getting really agitated FOR them. Honestly, I think they've showed remarkable restraint under the circumstances. If this concerned Alpha Gamma Delta, I'd be ballistic by now.

The dove is a sign of peace worldwide.. International.
Trying to choose a name for our group that has meaning is driving me insane. I say one thing, and people automatically assume another.
