All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
why some people get two or three codenames
With George H.W. Bush my guess is one for each administration (Reagan, himself, W). But that doesn't make sense for the Carters, so I don't know.
Also, should they be giving out those codenames?
It says at the top of Brenda's link. The codenames don't serve a purpose anymore, they're just tradition.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Huh - the Obama girls have the same codenames as Reagan's daughters.

That's better than Gore having Ethel Kennedy's codename.

Better that than Hearst's reason for using "Rosebud" as the nickname for his mistress.

That's what makes it slightly disturbing for me.
