How to sign Ian: tips from its letters

What to do with each part of Ian, from the first capital to the last stroke.

  1. The capital I. A cursive I is a single tall loop that starts at the baseline, rises and comes back down. It is narrow, so make it tall: an I two or three times the height of the small letters anchors Ian. Finish with a small curl into the a.

  2. A calm outline. Apart from the capital, every letter of Ian stays between the lines, with nothing rising above or dropping below. That makes a smooth, even signature; give it character with a tall capital I or a long underline.

  3. The final n. Ian ends on an arch. Let the last downstroke trail off to the right; it naturally becomes a quick flourish.

  4. A short name: 3 letters. Short names have room for one bold gesture: a big capital, a long underline or a loop. Sign it large; a short signature written small looks like initials.
