STOP I DID THAT (and then started singing the Animaniacs song in my head)

I like your name, catcat! :-)

Only one Mary? First Ladies apparently have more original names than their husbands

Level 96

Jun 12, 2019

I think that is to be expected, as popular female names are more diverse anyway. It's not as different as it could be though. Counting Bill = William, Jimmy = James etc, I make it 28 different names for the men and 38 for the women.

And kings and queens.

Level 88

Mamie Eisenhower’s first name was Mary, but that is not accepted for this quiz.

I got only 5 right. These are hard!

Julia Tyler was John Tyler's second wife, not his first. She was quite the prima donna, too.

But well respected, as I suspect you know. She received visitors from both the Union and Confederate armies during the Civil War.

Couldn't get Laura Bush. My mind just went blank on her.

Level 22

Jul 10, 2015

Awh.. I just guessed Laura :3

Level 92

Jul 18, 2018

That looks like Peter Griffin after Laura's name.

Level 54

Jul 9, 2015

I almost never ask for spelling exceptions, but could "Leticia" be accepted for "Letitia"? It's not a super common name, but both spellings are used, and anyone who can guess either version deserves the point, I think (no bias or anything, of course).

Sure

Hopefully we don't see Bill on this list. We'll have to call him First Gentleman

I love studying the First Ladies. So why was my immediate response to type in "Mildred" for Pierce? LOL

Level 64

May 25, 2021

Me too. I especially like studying Melania.

No good on this one

Thank goodness I decided to try “Lady Bird” for Lyndon Johnson. At first I thought that it wouldn’t count, but then I decided I might as well try it anyway.

I don’t think I ever in my heard her referred to as Claudia.

Level 92

Jul 18, 2018

Everyone should've gotten Edith Wilson, effectively the only female US President.

Level 51

Jan 1, 2019

Chester A. Arthur's sister, Mary Arthur McElroy, served as hostess of the White House during her brother's tenure as president; since his wife died before he became president.

Level 92

Mar 27, 2019

One of Jefferson's daughters got to be First Lady. The rest had to live in the servants' quarters.

Level 73

May 3, 2020

Anyone else tried Rita Coolidge?

Level 88

Jan 21, 2021

I did! And, it lifted me higher!

Level 46

Jun 24, 2020

I remembered that Frances Cleveland had gone by "Frank" early on in life, but after trying that and "Frankie" to no avail, I couldn't remember what the more feminine version of her name was. Tried "Francine," but didn't hit on "Frances." Alas.

Level 90

Only Warren Harding's wife could legitimately be called FLOtus.

Level 93

Mar 4, 2021

Yes, I heard that was her Twitter handle - @FLOtus ;)

Interesting. I always thought it was Mimi Eisenhower. Too bad it wasn't accepted.

Only knew about 10 of them (I'm European), then started guessing common female names and ended up with 23 points.

Tried to think of old school names. Guessed Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy. Thanks Hamilton. :)

Level 68

Can't believe there's not a single Hortense on this list. Sad.

Level 64

May 25, 2021

A number of "Lizzes."

Lucy Hayes was known as "Lemonade Lucy," as she didn't permit alcohol in the White House. The moniker may not have been used extensively until past her husband's term.

Level 68

May 25, 2021

And I believe Rosalynn Carter's White House nickname was "Bruiser."

Level 58

May 27, 2021

I think Sally Hemmings should be accepted

Level 87

Aug 4, 2023

Then you have absolutely no idea what first lady means. I assure you, she was not anything approaching a first lady.

Level 28

Nov 28, 2021

Chester Arthur, well, yeah but before he came to the presidency, he had Ellen Arthur, doesn't it count?

Level 58

Jan 6, 2022

Not a First Lady
