How to Create a Funny Fraternity Name

Personalities can vary from one group to the next, like day and night, so you may want to create your own funny name.

Here are some ideas to keep in mind as you brainstorm.

• Choose an acronym that represents your group. This can be a struggle since the Greek alphabet is limited, so you may want to misspell a word to fit your needs. For example, you can use a lowercase “l” instead of “I” to represent “Iota,” or use the Theta symbol (Θ) to represent the letter “o.” Since the name is meant to be funny, you don’t necessarily need to follow the rules of spelling and grammar!
• Take inspiration from your school. This could be through the school mascot or your town/state name. Another idea is to take inspiration from a favorite school subject or an extracurricular activity you all have in common.
• Make it a group project. When deciding on a group name, it’s a lot easier if everyone’s opinions are included. That way you have maximum creativity on your side and everyone gets a say in the final decision.
• What’s your purpose? If yours is a group that focuses on a love for music or volunteers at the local animal shelter, use that as part of your funny fraternity name. Even if there isn’t a specific purpose or goal for getting together, there’s always something you can find in common that may be helpful.
