My chapter doesn't officially give out nicknames, but from time to time we have a few sisters that earn nicknames along the way...some were cutesy, some just plain tacky.

Mine was "Free Agent." 'Nuff said.

We don't give out nicknames as part of tradition but they just sort of happen. Like mine is J-Ho cause my roommate and I are both Jill with the last initial H so she's J-Ha and I'm J-Ho or Ho or Ho Ho. Which sounds funny but I answer to it....My best friend is Jackie cause she called this guy we know a jackass and he's like you know what I'm too nice to call you that back and so I'll just call you Jackie and it stuck. So now on occasion I call her that too, or just Jack so that we're Jack and Jill since were best friends, haha.
I have a lot of friends in AEPi and they give their all their pledges nicknames. The names tend to stick even after they are initiated. There is a Prince (cause he's from Bel Air), a Boner (don't ask, he hates it so most people call him Bonedawg.....and sadly enough I dated him!), Tubbs, Ace, Lunchbox....and those are just a few.

Talking

That I know of, my organization doesn't officially give out nicknames, however, everybody seems to have one. I don't know how the other chapters do it, but as for my charter... We came up with our nicknames throughout our New Member Period. We named each other according to habits, sayings, accidents, etc. In the beginning we tried asigning nicknames, but they all changed as we got to know each other.

So far we have: Choo-Choo, Big Mama, Ali, Fresa, Two Puffs, and No Shame.

We dont give out nicknames, but "one night at the sorority house" (its bad when stories start like this) we all ended up with animal names. There is:
Jaimu, Loricorn, Malardvark, Polar Blair, Stephephant, Abbigator, Rachalo, Emmadile, Davidillo, and me...Angiroo.
Angiroo isnt bad, but my fiances nickname is Goo (from HS) but his fraternity found out and it stuck throughout college. So we are Goo and Roo.

At my chapter, each big sister gave her little sister a nickname at initiation. Sometimes the nicknames were legacy meaning that they were related to the big sister's nickname or her family tree. Sometimes the nicknames were unique.

We get nicknames from our big sisses after initiation. Mine is Princess Leia because I always wore my hair in two bun thingies during my new member period. When we graduate we get another nickname from our little sisses or someone else close to us.
Some of the OX's at my school have nicknames that will never go away. I don't even know some of their real names.

During informal retreat we decided to give our four Danielles different names and one was Dede and another was D, the others Dani and simply Danielle. That kind of annoyed me b/c I was called "Dee" all through high school. But my sisters call me Dee on occasion anyway.

PC 99 has a small group that goes by OCG (Outta Control Girls) and they have different nicknames all the time. A couple of my pledge sisters and I decided it was up to us to uphold their legacy so in Key West on Spring Break we thought up ROWDY (secret acronym, it's funny but pretty dumb).

Then we also have our Rapper Names. I'm ODB, and there's Trick Dani, Aminem, 36 Merchant, Kellster Rhymes, Stefdawg, and Dr. K.

My big sis's nickname is Sparkle Bitch. She can constantly be found wearing sparkles and....well....she can act like a bitch sometimes. It never suprises me when I am at a fraternity or out around town somewhere and someone is like OMG you know Sparkle Bitch!!

My pledge name was "Tu-Tu" because I'm somewhat overweight and one of the guys said "Hey, picture Stan ina Tu-tu" and everyone busted up laughing.

My active name is Animal because I can smash aluminum cans on my head and bite a piece out of them. One night One of my bros, Cracky, said "What was the name of the guy on the muppets who just acted wild all the time?" and my Big Bro said "Animal!" and the rest is history.

Can't be as bad as my pledge bro Nick. We were at a party, and a hot girl noticed his red hair, so she said, "is it red down there too firecrotch?"

So, "firecrotch" it was.......

For us nicknames just happen....I am know as Shawnna wanna, and to 'Nikki Sue' I am 'Shawnna Lou' . We have another Shawnna in our chapter who is always the last one to get ready for anything, so her nickname is Poke. My fiance's nickname in his chapter is House, a shortened version of his last name. When his little brother pledged they became Big House and Little House. Because Big House and I are engaged, I have become Future Mrs. House.

Wait, firecrotch has to be one of the funniest things I've ever heard!!! LMAO

We get nicknames upon initiation from our big sisters that usually relate to either your personality, appearance, attitude or something stupid you might like. My big sister and I did this dance to Copacabana for a greek week thing. She was Lola and I'm Lil' Lola. Then there are just those names that you get...mine were Jazz and Nine. Don't ask

Hehe, there was this really slutty redhead girl at school that the guys called Firecrotch.

The only person in my chapter that had a pledge name that stuck was my big sis. Her nickname was Petunia, but I'm not entirely sure about why. My pledge name was Snarf because I had a drink come out of my nose one time. And we always had an OG, or Original Gangster, in every new member class. This started the year I joined because they started with only 1 new member, so she was the original gangster. The title of OG usually goes to the most hardcore new member.

I know a few guys that had really funny pledge names. One guy was Bump, because he's about as useless as a speedbump. Another guy was DWT, for Dry White Toast, because they thought he was boring (he's actually really interesting and extremely smart). My boyfriend was Hoover because he gave me a huge hickey one time that took forever to go away.
