Any cool acronyms for the scale modes?

[N.F.A.]

Hi all,
Yes, I know the scale modes are Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian. Just wondering if there was some cool acronym to help remember them faster than I am currently doing. Thanks in advance.

I think this one is pretty common and helps to differentiate between lydian and lochrian: "I don't phone Lydia much after lock-up".

Cheers,

I actually prefer LIMDAPL (pronouced lim dapple )

If you use that order, it's just adding flats

Lydian - 1 sharp
Ionian - 0 flats
Mixolydian - 1 flat
Dorian - 2 flats
Aolean - 3 flats
Phrygian - 4 flats
Locrian - 5 flats

Hitch hiking on Pacman's post. How about something that will actually help us use modes.

Ionian - straight out.
Lydian - sharp the 4.
Mixolydian - flat the 7.

Aeolian - flat the 3, 6 and 7.
Dorian - take the 6 back to natural.
Phrygian - add a flatted 2.
Locrian - add the flatted 2 and flat the 5.

But that assumes we will be using modes.....
