vanity plate
Custom car identifier
A vanity plate is a vehicle license plate with a custom combination of letters and numbers chosen by the owner, usually to spell something meaningful—a name, initials, or clever phrase: His vanity plate read HOTSHOT.
The term reflects that such plates serve personal expression rather than mere identification.
