Mine’s way too long (6 character max, here). I suppose I could just get “silent”, but that doesn’t really fit. I have, however, considered getting “ROB” before. But I don’t really want to give anyone any ideas. 🙂 There’s a liscence plate on a Jeep by my friend’s house that says “DAVO”. I do believe this guy’s name is Dave, and he is called Davo (what a thrill it would be to finally meet him). I’ve thought about getting “ROBO”, but there’s problems with that, too. It should be pronounced Rob-oh, but I don’t think it would be. People would think I’m a Battlebots nut, or something. 🙂 ---

Since I have to re-register my car in Texas again, anyway, I’m considering getting “MsRobyn” vanity plates. Thanks for the idea. Robin ---

Although it has nothing to do with my screenname, I do have an **ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US** liscense plate frame. My dad about freaked when he saw it, but I pointed out that it was technically my car (a nice Nissan Altima, a gift from gramma). This afternoon, I also stuck the head of a Yoda pez dispenser on the antennae with a piece of chewing gum (aquafresh, to be exact). It’s becoming more personalized all of the time. Now to get the SPINNE plate… To PennDOT! ---

the ultimate tag ever… EVNGLION…I could fit it, and I think I will some day. Also, for anyone that knows about Evangelion, I would also like to try an Eva-Unit1…how cool would that be? ---

**Girlbysea** has personalized plates with her screen name. I’m looking to get IKEJOC (Ship nickname and rate). ---

Mine would be TRBLAGN, since FL tags have a 7 letter max. ---

Only 7 letters for Florida? Damn. :mad: Maybe I can paint an “L” on the back bumper. SCRCHOW (nah, it’d look like “Scare Chow”, like I’m the cafeteria lady.) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/vanity-plates-with-your-screen-name/60562.md?page=1)
