Hahah... Yes, But therein lies the problem - It seems nobody in the United States born in the past 50 years took French (or Art) in Middle School.
The plate I had on the car prior to this one, said:
CAUXBRA
Which I thought was a clever, and rather intuitive fusion of "Faux Cobra" and yet, The SECOND most common question I would get on the car (DWRAT nailed question number one, above ), was:
"Dude.... What does COX-BRA mean, Bro?"  (and if I had tried "FAUXBRA", the response would have been: "FOX-BRA...? Dewd, I don't get it.... Is it like, a Fox-Body Mustang or something...?"
and so, I saddled my Langue créative, and surrendered back to common, 2nd grade English...
