We compute analytically the multi-particle eccentricities, \epsilon_m {2n}, for systems dominated by fluctuations, such as proton-nucleus collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. In particular, we derive a general relation for <\epsilon_2^{2n}>. We further discuss the relations between various multi-particle eccentricities and demonstrate that \epsilon_2{2} > \epsilon_2{4} \simeq \epsilon_2{6} \simeq \epsilon_2{8}, in agreement with recent numerical calculations in a Glauber model.
