Alternate Names for US Government Positions?

[President Benedict Arnold]

Does anybody have any ideas on alternate names for positions in the US Government, such as Attorney General or referring to those in charge of US departments as secretaries?

Any ideas that you have are welcome, thank-you.

Homeland Security could have been Emergency Preparedness if it was smaller.

If they had gone full classical back then, we could have Senior Consul = President, Junior Consul = Vice President, and the ministers/secretaries might be praetors or something along the line of "Praetor Urbanus". Princeps Senatus, would that be the speaker of the house?

If the Dutch colonized the rest of the coastline, the eventual independent country could have a Stadtholder as the position of head of state instead of a President.

Princeps Senatus, would that be the speaker of the house?

More likely that the President would be the Princeps Senatus, and thus speaker of the Senate at the same time.

I think you could name the whole government after Roman examples.

President: Princeps (or [First] Consul); maybe even Praetor Maximus
Vice President: (Second) Consul
Secretaries: Praetors
Secretary of State: that's hard. Maybe fetial?
Secretary of the Treasury: Quaestor
Secretary of War: Consul
Attorney General: Praetor
Postmaster General: Aedile

Senate: Senate
Speaker of the Senate: Princeps Senatus
House: Comitia or Tribunate (because of the People's Tribunes)
Speaker of the House: Tribune

Members of the SCOTUS: Ephors (the Ephors enforced the Law in Sparta) or Censors

Governors: Proconsuls
Governors of territories: Propraetors

Mayor: Duumvir

There could be various interesting variations on the titles of Governor and President. The leaders of each individual state could be Presidents of said state while the OTL President has the title of Federal President or an equivalent. Or as a sort of reversal the Governors could keep the title of Governor while the OTL President is known as the Governor General.
