From St. Louis, Mo.: A certain nickname has been used by a family for decades. This term is derived from the last part of their surname. It was also used by the family's father. The family had not considered it to be offensive.

A license plate bearing this nickname was obtained by a family member many years ago. It had not been flagged as a problem for a long time.

Further information about this incident is available, including the circumstances that led to the license plate being changed.
