To be bothered by this car's registration?

I have my eye on a car. I like everything about it except the number plate:

FF69 XSP

(Imagine here that my name really is FlipFlopping, so the FF is my initials. Actually my name is something else but the letters are my initials, if you see what I mean, so if I were called Mary Brown it would be MB69 XSP)

I am slightly worried that people will think I have a personalised number plate with my initials followed by 69.

Please reassure me that I am worrying over nothing.

Vote YABU if you think the number plate is fine.
Vote YANBU if you think everyone will assume I've basically put my sex life on my number plate.

@SurreyMumOfOne

I can’t see how you could do exactly that - I do like a puzzle though.

You could certainly have ATW 4T, or
A7 WAT, or just TWA 7?

The problem with trying to get the full reg you wanted, is that the letter I is not used in U.K. plates, which you would need, as you couldn’t have such along registration starting with a number.

Yes, I realise I may be missing your point Wink

I would be embarrassed if people thought I had a personalised number plate but realistically who's going to actually notice?

I changed my name by deed poll to NX61TLE - much simpler and cheaper that way.
