It's apparently their attempt to use military sounding lingo and the NATO Phonetic Alphabet is widley used by not only many military forces but in English speaking countries many police and emergency services also use it. Also the Tenno are supposed to be the decendants of modern humans (as are the Grineer and Corpus).

As for Gamma, that would be the Greek Alphabet. While not completely out of place considering some of they names they use, they probably figured that wasn't military-ish enough.
