Default Vanity plate name

I have been wrecking my brain for a vanity plate and everything I have turned in, the state says it has been taken. My wife came up with this name for the plate. According to my sources, it is not taken and wanted to get some feed back from forum members. It is as followed: HOLD ON

I have this same problem, and when I find something that is kind of "OK" I never go threw with it. So here I still am without a custom plate.

Love it! I just ordered mine today. DH (Mr. joeb1kinobe) bought me a C5 last week and titled it in my name, so I thought "THNXHON" (thanks hon) was appropriate He's thinking of getting "URWELCM" (you are welcome) on his C4. LOL

good and obvious ones are usually taken, get creative and don't wait. I had one picked out and waited and it was taken before my renewal came around.
