i had one that asked for what kind of car was your first car and like
your question, 4 characters was too short. so much for ford, bmw, mg
and quite a few other cars. 

however, it's a really good idea to use fake info. using real info is
how people get hacked. it happened to sarah palin and paris hilton.
there are people who know what your first car was. there are people who
know what your mother's maiden name is. some of it is public info and
not that hard to find out for someone sufficiently motivated.
