Dick Cheney (“Angler”)
Even if it might not seem obvious to the casual observer, it turns out that the secret service likes to be very playful when they assign code names to their charges. Often, these are meant to be received in an affectionate manner, which is certainly the case with Dick Cheney. Dubbed “Angler” by his detail, the avid fisherman is said to have chuckled out loud when the suggestion was first made. Although he is very private about his personal life, this was one anecdote he was happy for the rest of the world to know about.

Roger Clinton (“Headache”)
Although not receiving an official code name because he never served in a prominent role in public office, Bill Clinton’s younger brother Roger was often called by something not so pleasant, namely “Headache”. His reputation preceded him, and this didn’t go unnoticed by the people who had to deal with him in his capacity as a member of the first family. Needless to say, his stint in federal jail backed up the idea that he caused a lot of headaches after all.
