Karen Pence: Hummingbird

When Second Lady Karen Pence was advised she would also have to select a Secret Service code name that began with the letter H, there has been no question about what she’d choose for herself. A tremendous nature lover, Pence allegedly chose the name ‘Hummingbird’ after her all-time favorite bird. And her love for the smaller creatures in nature is not only reflected in her Secret Service code name. Since she began living at the Vice Presidential Residence in Washington, D.C., she has installed a huge beehive on the grounds.

Al Gore: Sawhorse and Sundance

On the 2000 campaign trail, Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore made jokes at his own expense. “He would say, “Al Gore is so boring; his code name for the Secret Service is Al Gore,” to a laughing crowd. But obviously, that was not true……we think. Actually, Al Gore’s Secret Service’s nickname was ‘Sawhorse’ when he was vice president, and ‘Sundance’ when he ran for the presidential seat, as reported at the time. Karenna Gore, his daughter, wasn’t as lucky. She chose her name as a child and chose ‘Smurfette,’ which accompanied her even years later.
