71. I think 'Barack' is disrespectful, actually. We don't refer to 'Franklin', or 'John', etc.
Clinton gets 'Bill' often as Hillary gets 'Hillaried' because it differentiates the two.

Just as, since 'Eleanor', first ladies have been referred to buy first names because they are the secondary use of the name in print.
