This might be a dangerous request...but I'm willing to risk the possibly scary things this group will come up with for the sake of all the resident creativity...

Time to re-register the car in a new state...so time to think about a new personalized license plate. As those of you who have been to the convention in the past two years may have seen, I currently sport "ATHMDD"...not the best since I couldn't add any spaces, but I was very limited by DMV rules. It worked...but I'd like something more clear...

New state, new DMV, better options...a few things come to mind

AT HM DD might be a clearer variant of my old plate
AT HMDAD
NTMRMOM
24X7DAD (although all Dads are 24/7...so I'm not so sure about that one)
HOME DAD

Here is what you get to work with: up to 7 characters (letters and numbers) plus one 1/2 space. Can substitute a character for another 1/2 space, or substitute a character for a full space.

Have at it! I'll buy you a beer at the convention if you have the winning entry...two if the plate is actually available...

Multifaceted

MANDATE

1. a command or authorization to act in a particular way on a public issue given by the electorate to its representative.
...
6. Roman Catholic Church. an order issued by the pope, esp. one commanding the preferment of a certain person to a benefice.
7. Roman and Civil Law. a contract by which one engages gratuitously to perform services for another.
8. (in modern civil law) any contract by which a person undertakes to perform services for another.
...

You would also be a big hit at playdates when the "MANDATE" finally arrived.

Got some front runners...

Go ticktock! I especially like DADCAB and TRFY DAD...

Gaming with Baby: I like, I like it...A+ for creativity.

Nice try JPhillip...but given that I live in San Francisco in a neighborhood right next to the Castro, I think MANDATE might be read very differently...-

Thanks guys! I'll let you know what plates I'm actually able to get...

I'm not going to deal with the DMV for at least another week...so there is still time for more suggestions...

And the winner is...

Uh, none of the above, actually...despite the excellent suggestions. (
A beer to JPhillip and ticktock for excellent creativity...) We've downsized from 2 cars to 1 (no need for 2 in an urban setting...we have several bus lines and a street car within 5 blocks of our house). So, MY car has really become OUR car...and it seemed kinda dumb for DW to drive a car with a Dad-centric plate. We lucked out...amazingly enough (this is CA after all, with 47 bazillion cars, many with vanity plates) and got the moniker by which we refer to our family: TAZO SF ...all our first initials, plus the first letter of both our last names (as well as the city we are from and live in). Good enough. Now if the DMV could just explain why it takes 12 weeks to get the plates...

Hey, don't rush the

Hey, don't rush the convicts. The ACLU will come down on you for making the convicts work to hard to make your plate any faster! This is Kalifornia after all.
