Possibly James Madison. The "Executive Mansion" was burned by the British during the war of 1812, and after the war was over, it was painted white to cover smoke damage. Madison was president at the time, and may have dubbed it "The White House", but it is equally likely people just began popularly calling it that.

What is the nerve center of the White House?
Probably the West Wing. Each President picks his/her own staff, which become the President’s closest advisors and usually have offices in the White House. (West Wing) Their titles do not always indicate the function they perform for the Chief Executive--assistant to the President; special consultant; counselor; etc. The titles vary from one administration to the next but in general, the men and women who hold the offices oversee the political and policy interests of the President. As part of a personal staff, they do not have to be confirmed by the Senate and they can be hired and fired at will. There are two ways to organize the staff: the circular method in which several assistants report directly to the President; and the pyramid method in which most assistants report through a hierarchy to a chief of staff who then deals with the President. Over the years, the White House staff has become an important group of advisors to the President and at times, are very powerful in influence.
