What is a Personalized License Plate?

Answer:
A personalized license plate is a

license plate that says something that you have chosen. Depending on which state you are in, you will have a limit of six or eight letters and numbers on the license plate.

Using that limit, you can make any phrase, name, word, or code that you can think of, provided no other driver has already chosen that exact combination of letters and numbers. Some people use personalized license plates to display team spirit for their favorite sports team, while others use them to display their initials or an important date, such as a birthday or anniversary. Personalized license plates are sometimes called vanity plates.
