Middle Earth Liscense Plates
 
I was just in the "You know you are obsessed with LotR" thread when this idea popped into my mind. If you were to put an LotR related message on the liscense plate of your car, what would it say. I don't have any ideas right now, but I'll think of some and post later.

peonydeepdelver 07-30-2003 10:08 AM

Hmmm, I would put something Hobbit-related, like "SHIRE" or "HOBBIT" or maybe something like "BILBO". Hehehe. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

the guy who be short 07-30-2003 10:58 AM

I would have: T0LK13N1T3
Also, I would have a novelty horn that says: Noro lim! Noro lim!

Horse-Maiden of the Shire 07-30-2003 12:29 PM

Mine is going to be FRODO, or something to that effect. Or maybe R1NG3R.

Orominuialwen 07-30-2003 01:20 PM

I've had mine planned out for a long time (even though it will be a long time before I can drive). Unfortunately, WI license plates only let you have 7 characters, so my choices are kind of limited. Anyway, mine would be MDLERTH.

Meela 07-30-2003 01:58 PM

DENETHOR. Or I might have STEWARD or something. Or perhaps FARAMIR. Or ELESSAR. Or ME26 RST. ME for Middle Earth, 26 = number of Ruling Stewards, and RST standing for Ruling Stewards.

Duncariel 07-30-2003 02:37 PM

I like MDLERTH. It's great. Mine would have to say something like ENTRME, enter ME. The only problem would be that only Tolkien fans would get it.

Wouldn't that be the point? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
Peace

Firondoiel 07-30-2003 03:29 PM

I would probably put "MEorBust!" ME=Middle-Earth, just to point that out.

Gorwingel 07-30-2003 07:19 PM

I would love to get one on my car, but I would bet that because of the release of the films many of the Middle Earth related 7 lettered names, places, etc. are gone. I did once really see a man on a motorcycle who had the license plate of "LOTR", which I thought either ment "Lord of the Rings" or "Lord of the Rigs". I would love to have a small green Mini with the license plate of "FRODO", "HOBBIT", or "PIPPIN"

Horse-Maiden of the Shire 07-30-2003 10:24 PM

Here are a couple:

FR0D0LVS (Frodo Lives)
GREYFOOL
LOTRFRK (LotR Freak)

Ooh! Maybe I'll get a big black car and have my license plate as NAZGUL.

Elen Ilúvitauri 07-31-2003 02:08 AM

Id have VALAR, thats all i can think of right now, but id think it would be cool. Its strange because here in Australia the limit for numbers on a number plate is about seven letters/numbers, but thats becuase we only have a pop. of 19 million. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

*nevquesseiel* 07-31-2003 07:34 AM

Hey fellow Aussie!! lol yes I'd say we Australians might have slightly more choice due to our low population. . . I would have NOROLIM or NOLDOR or NENYA or something. . . hey look at that they all start with N. . .
Nev

peonydeepdelver 07-31-2003 07:40 AM

Hmmm, maybe I'll get a greenish car and have the liscense plate be FANG0RN. Niftalicious!

ArwenBaggins 07-31-2003 08:11 AM

I may have something like ELFGIRL or ELFGRL1, 1MELLON and 2MELLYN, or ELROND0.

Sapphire_Flame 08-01-2003 11:06 AM

I have this all planned out: I'm going to get a black PT Cruiser, with flames on the sides, and the license plate will read NAZGUL1. Or maybe MORGUL1. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Abedithon le,

Ohh Yeah. Good point. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I figured out another one. LVNRCR=elven archer. I couldn't fit the H in there.
It takes a minute ta figure out, but isn't that the point?

Daisy Brambleburr 08-01-2003 12:51 PM

There's a car near me that has a numberplate with 'ENT' at the end. I'm not sure if it was deliberate or not though...
As for me, maybe a simple '111' would do the trick. Or is that too cryptic? Okay then, '111ORBST'- one hundered and eleven or bust'. That's my ambition, to live to be a hundred and 11. Not very likely, but fun to tell people.

Orominuialwen 08-01-2003 01:16 PM

I've seen about three different licence plates that weren't customized that said ERU. I guess He really is everywhere!

Tinuviel of Denton 08-01-2003 03:56 PM

I've seen license plates that say YRH. They all make me think of 'yrch.' Heh.

Mine would say LUTHIEN, or maybe DDRNGER. D.ead Ringer. You know, because some people call LotR obsessed fans 'Ringers' and those of us on the Downs are 'dead.' (that idea originally came from the thread What are we? and I liked it.)

Everdawn 08-02-2003 12:44 AM

AGTLROND if you wanted to push the aussie limits, i have seen some cars with 8, but it costs about $2,000 to get one... Anyway, that was Agent Elrond.

Luinalatawen 08-05-2003 12:56 AM

If I could cut SHIELDMAIDEN down to seven letters, then I'd love to do that, since I love Eowyn, but I don't think it would look right to me however it's done. Oh well, I'll have to think of something else.

dancing spawn of ungoliant 08-05-2003 04:48 AM

In Finland our register plates(or whatever...) consists of 3 letters and 1 to 3 numbers. That sets certain limits.Maybe something like
ENT-5(ents)
OSS-3(ossë)
TAR-1(tári=queen in Quenya)
AIW-3(aiwë=bird in Q.)
BIL-80(bilbo)
GAM-633(gamgee)
oh well, I doubd I never get one of these 'cause they're quite expensive.

One Axe to Rule them All 08-05-2003 03:41 PM

how about

mor-dor
fly-ufl (fly you fool)
gan-dlf
ent-wsh
blk-lnd (black land)
elf-man
one-rng
rng-man
ran-g3r

One Axe to Rule them All 08-05-2003 03:42 PM

shl-madn
or shld-mdn
for shield maiden.

dancing spawn of ungoliant 08-06-2003 03:28 AM

ELF-151(elf is 1. but maybe it's too obvious)
SHE-108(shelob)
UNG-01(ungol)
oh, too many options despite I'm allowed to use only 3 letters...

Orominuialwen 08-07-2003 08:08 AM

i thought of some new ones! LVNMAID (elven maid), BRWDWNS (barrow-downs), and EOWYN, or EOMER. Or you could get a silver-grey car and have the plates say SHDWFAX (shadowfax)! This thread is really cool!

Finwe 08-07-2003 08:47 AM

I would get either:


FINWE-01
NAZGUL
DRKLORD or (DRKLADY)

Tinuviel of Denton 08-07-2003 09:31 AM

On that note, how about a white car and ASFLOTH or ASFLTH (Asfaloth)?

dancing spawn of ungoliant 08-07-2003 12:31 PM

Or a dark grey car and HASUFEL [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil 08-07-2003 02:11 PM

hmm, liscense plates... fun fun! How about:
L0TRFAN or perhaps I'd have ELV1SH or H0BB1T.. yes that's it.. I'd have two cars, park them side by side so it would read ELV1SH H0BB1T! bwahahahaha it'd be interesting if every actor in LoTR had a liscence plate with their character name on it.. just a random thought

Duncariel 08-07-2003 02:16 PM

Or a red car that says~ are you ready for this?~ SRNSI

Go ahead, figure that one out.

Tinuviel of Denton 08-07-2003 02:31 PM

Sauron's Eye, of course. That's easy.

What about one that says HARAD? I know, I know, they weren't popular, but I've become partial to them since Dark Seduction.

arianrod 08-07-2003 04:52 PM

I've heard of one car that had a licence plate of MEORBST (Middle Earth or Bust) and had a "Hobbit on board" sticker in the back window. I want one of those!

I'd probably get STYBBA. Or maybe GAMG33 or LBERETH (first 'e' wouldn't fit).

Brinniel 08-15-2003 11:53 PM

I'd probably use something simple, like my BD nickname. Though, I also like Elf in Training (but abbreviated, of course).

*sigh* It'll be a long time before I can get a custom-made license plate. Not for another seven years, at least.

Yavanna228 08-16-2003 08:54 AM

Possibly something to the effect of 'YAVANNA' or 'YVNA228'. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I'm quite partial to my name here.
Peace

Lily 08-24-2003 09:12 PM

I think I would either have LOTR70X70 which means LOTR forever. Or GANDALF or ONERING or NINE or THEEYE or ORTRTA (one ring to rule them all) and I probably got more but I'm sleepy so I'll do more later.

Hilde Bracegirdle 08-25-2003 06:20 AM

I was thinking WAIN is good for an SUV.

[ August 25, 2003: Message edited by: Hilde Bracegirdle ]

Rose Cotton 08-25-2003 02:34 PM

Liscense plates I'd like:


SAMWISE

RSECTTN (Rose Cotton)

1379RGS (1 ruling ring, 3 elven rings, 7 dwarven rings, 9 nazgul rings)

2brkfst (second breakfast)

Maikadurwen 08-25-2003 03:55 PM

mine will say mrfrodo [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
