What is Vanitize?
1.
The act of abbreviating or sometimes lengthening a word, phrase, name or idea for use on a vehicle license (vanity) plate in order to fit the message into the space allowed (usually 7-8 characters) or because the correct spelling is already taken by another license plate owner.
"Hey, I got my Mississippi Native vanity plate the other day!"
"How did you vanitize that for the plate?"
"It's MSNATV"
