My '85 Westy is named Weeping Willow (sometimes only Willow, LOL) and has the license plate, WPNWILO. My '84 7 passenger used to be named Mongo but when my grandson asked why I had two Vanagons I told him the 7 pass was my work horse. It's been called Horse ever since. I even thought about changing it to Horst as the grandson wouldn't catch the difference. Mike
