FLOTUS, meaning the First Lady of the United States, was probably first used publicly in 1983 by Donnie Radcliffe of the Washington Post who wrote that the secret service use POTUS and FLOTUS to refer to the President and the first lady. POTUS was first used to designate a telephone line in the West Wing's Cabinet room, between President Nixon and his Cheif of Staff H.R. Haldeman in 1969. Then POTUS disappeared for a while and was made popular again in a 1977 White House Novel, "Full Disclosure," as a pet name adopted by the unmarried president's paramour photographer. She felt calling him Mr. President was too formal given their intimate relationship, but calling him by his first name didn't seem exactly appropriate either, so she settled on POTUS.
