   最早的"First Lady"的称谓是由"first lady of honor", "first lady of the Admiralty"演化而来,用来这些称呼指那些有影响力的杰出 推荐信息女性。1834年更出现了"first lady in (of) the land"的称呼。爱德华-布尔沃-里顿在1851年引用了这一说法,"She was so beautiful and so good, and not proud she! Though she looked like the first lady in the land."


  "First Lady"第一次被用来指总统夫人是1849年,托卡里-泰勒总统称赞多利-麦迪逊夫人时说道,"She will never be forgotten because she was truly our First Lady for a half-century." (希拉里-克林顿在她的1999年多利-麦迪逊夫人纪念银币发行仪式上的讲话中引用了这句话。)
  19世纪下半期,人们则很少用"First Lady"来指总统夫人,直到20世纪,"First Lady"才开始流行。1911年,埃尔西-费格森主演的名为"Dolly Madison" (又名"The First Lady of the Land")的戏剧在纽约上演。1941年普林德维尔出版"First Lady"一书。《牛津英语词典》引用了《芝加哥论坛》的"Mrs. Thomas E. Dewey discloses today what kind of first lady she will be."
  在过去的二十几年中,由"First Lady"又派生了一系列的与总统有关的人或物的特殊称呼。最早是在1978年,卡特总统夫人的爱犬被冠以"first dog"("第一爱犬")的称呼。那么,我们将来是不是该称呼某为女总统的丈夫为"First Gentleman"("第一先生")呢?
