I am using vanitygen to generate addresses but one thing I notice is that vanitygen generates only private keys starting with 5K or 5J, is there any other program that allows  personalised address or a full address?

That's called an address prefix which is necessary so you can't start an address with any character you want.

For example every Bitcoin address starts with 1 (or 3).

All compressed private keys start with 5K or 5J, and yes it is random.
