I was renewing my registration online and saw the option for personalized license plates and I thought I'd take a look. First I saw the Air Force Veteran plate which was really nice, it only had four spaces though, so not much room for personalizing. Then I just looked at the general plate that could be personalized. It had eight spaces. So I played around with the lettering and a lot of the ones that I wanted were already taken by someone else. Finally I opted for VEGANMOM. I love it! Does anyone else have a personalized license plate?

My corvette is DE8S VET.
The "8" is a block letter so it looks just like a "B".
DEBS VET was already taken.

heck no. I don't want anyone to remember my license plate in the event they are witness to a crime I've committed ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/OrTI4SBmZ2ZYSFv6ag4f.jpg)

LSU JOY Funny story: when LSU played Oklahoma in the 2003 BCS National Championship game, I told DH if we won I was going to get a personalized plate. He thought Oklahoma would win so he said sure. The minute the game was over (we won 21-14), I was online to the DMV ordering my plates. ![](http://66.147.244.171/~thecoll6/ce2/images/smilies/Cheer.gif) Funnier story: One day two blonds were looking at my license plate and said they always have fun trying to decipher personalized plates but mine stumped them. I guess they totally missed the license plate HOLDER that read 2003 National Champs Louisiana State University. ![:laugh:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Ivm7lm0DayrhoRpwvCeH.jpg) So I told them I'm a happy member of the Long Shoreman's Union. They said that's awesome and went on their merry way. True story!

Both DH and I have collegiate plates (University of Iowa). Mine say RUHWKI2 - "Are you a Hawkeye too?" And DH has GAMTYME - Game Time. We have to list 5 and they pick what is not already taken, so you have to get creative!

I have ITS T*TYM (I added the star between the T's) for It's Tea Time. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to come up with a personalized tea-theme plate that isn't already taken in California. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg) I've had these plates for years and I'm actually kind of sick of it, and my registration is due next month, so I think I'll dump it and go back to regular plates now.

Mine is CAKE LDY. We can have seven letters/numbers with one small space. I live in WI, but was outside Nashville getting gas and using the restroom. I came out, and there was a lady standing by my car obviously waiting for me. She asked me if I did cakes, and I replied that I did. Then she proceeded to tell me she was looking for someone to do her wedding cake. Ummmm... you noticed CAKE LDY, but you didn't notice it was from WI; not TN???!

We have four cars/trucks with personalized plates and my kids each have personalized plates. My first car when I was 16 had my name on my plates. I have an unusual name and it got me in all kinds of trouble. Everyone knew where I was and there was no other "peasquared" to blame it on!! ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/OrTI4SBmZ2ZYSFv6ag4f.jpg) I love reading other's plates and trying to figure out the abbreviated ones. 3sugarbugs, my dad would love to have yours!

You don't have to re-purchase the personalized plate every year, do you? My regular plate I just stick the new sticker over the old one.

I do. when I got a specialty plate with a coastal design I figured I might as well get it personalized too. I hate the extra cost but it makes it that much easier to find my car in a huge parking lot. LOL

No but you do need to pay the higher fee every year to renew them. My plate is personalized. The regular fee to renew your plate is around $50 bucks; I pay $150 each year. My plate, BTW, says WWFSMD

I had been wanting a personalized plate for years but couldn't figure out exactly what I wanted on it. I was talking to one of the managers at work last year and somehow the subject of license plates came up. He said he thought it would be funny if I had one that said OK since my name is Kaye. I laughed and agreed with him and then spent the next couple of weeks trying to decide exactly what I wanted.
I ended up with a West Point plate (my son graduated from West Point Saturday) that says OHKAYE.
People comment on it all the time.

They get enough of my money in taxes as it is.
