Well, AOII does not go in any sort of order, meaning like Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, etc....but our newest chapter designation name is Sigma Beta at St. Joe's in PA (20054-2005). Our newest colony at USC-Aiken has yet to be named.

Ours is Theta Delta, but I know there have been some skipped.
I'm at work, so I don't have my book to look it up.

Theta Chi, University of Georgia
Right now I think there's 3 or 4 NEW colonies, so we're going to be at Iota Alpha soon.

Are there specific reasons why some letters are skipped, or why some orgs don't go in Alpha-Beta-Gamma order? That has always puzzled me.

last chapter
Upsilon Iota--Indiana U/Purdue at Indianapolis
TKE skipped the Eta alphabet entirely.
We have had an orderly naming since day one, save Sigma chapter is called "Scorpion"= the old local, both begin with S tho.
TKE has about 25 colonies & affiliates, mostly revivals.

It is so hard to reply to this question!
With the Merger of TKN in 1939, there were designations that began with Theta, and Kappa. These were relegated for the Merger into LXA.
The Last Intitiated Chapter is Lambda Pi In St. Louis! 
With The opening of Colonies, it is also hard!

Tri Sigma never uses Omega when naming a collegiate chapter. The Omega Chapter is for the sisters who have passed away.

Alpha Phi is at Iota Iota, George Washington University. As you probably know from the chapter naming thread, Alpha Phi did not go through the double letter Alphas as most GLOs did. The only chapter whose designation begins with Alpha is our Alpha Chapter, Syracuse.

That's lovely!
We use Omega Alpha as our designation for Alumnae Initiates.
