Zig license plate

Something completely unrelated to programming: today I learned that you can have a license plate in Germany with “ZIG” as region/city code (first few letters).

The site is in German only unfortunately, but the title says something like “drivers want ZIG - large demand for reinstated license plate codes” (background: in Germany, you cannot choose the first letters on the plate, they depend on where you live. ~10 years ago, old regional codes became available again, after being unavailable before).

“ZIG” is for “Ziegenhain” somewhere in the middle of Germany. Unfortunately, I don’t see a relation to reptiles. But if I would ever found a company that involves Zig and driving around, I’d know where to move ^^
