Graham as you can see from the replies, most states require a front plate, but
many do not. Its hard for non Americans to understand that in many respects we
are fifty separate countries, and the lack of conformity where there is no
national standard is really something.
As to what to put in the space, anything, that fits from a cute saying ( my
other car is an MG) to any design etc. you like.
