greek alphabet of name claims

by: Cool Alphabet Man

The greek letters that are used as nicknames:

Αlphas: None, the word "alpha" is too ubiquitous to be used as a greek nickname
Βetas: Beta Theta Pi
Γammas: Gamma Phi Beta
Δelts: Delta Tau Delta
Εpsilons:
Ζetas: Zeta Tau Alpha
Ηtas:
Θetas: Kappa Alpha Theta
Ιotas: Iota Phi Theta, non-IFC though
Κappas: Kappa Kappa Gamma
Λambdas:
Μus:
Νus: None, but Snus (Sigma Nus) comes close
Ξs:
Οmicrons:
Πis: None, but Pikes (Pi Kappa Alpha) comes close
Ρhos: Kappa Delta Rho, but we don't have them on campus
Σigmas:
Τaus: Phi Kappa Tau
Υpsilons:
Φis: Alpha Epsilon Phi
Χis: None, but machi (Sigma Chi) comes close
Ψis:
Ωmegas: None, same deal as alpha

If I missed one comment it below, but be realistic. For instance, nobody calls Lambda Chi "Lambdas".
