Atkin's Atkin

Congratulations Pete on your latest acquisition. May you (and we) derive many hours of pleasure from it.
But have you, I ask myself, considered the potentially dire implications for spelling aberrations, apostrophe abuse, and, well, Atkinisms?
Something like this may be perpetrated in, say, the Lowestoft Gazette come autumn:
<In his hands, Atkin's Atkin's akin to no other> ...... okay, sorry!

Hi there!
Well....what a day. Pete gets a guitar with the same name as him.
Ken Barlow drunk in public.
The murder weapon hidden in the victim's coffin and a cremation possible.
What a day!
I suppose that the next step for our hero is a personised number plate for his motor vehicle.
Any suggestions?
Let's get: ATK 1N out the way.
And: PA 1
Other contributions welcome....but they MUST be possible in terms of letters and numbers allowed by law.
Entries must be received by Midnight (Voices).
Over to you.....

Sorry, Roger, but this registration dates back to at least the early 1960s, and I am informed that the Ministry of Transport would not allow any "rude words (or combinations of letters that could be interpreted as such)" in registrations, and as "BOT1" could be interpreted as "BOTI" - pronounced "botty" - I'm afraid that rules it out 
Nice try though 
Cheers
