How to sign Nicholas: tips from its letters

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

The capital N. Like M with two humps: a small hook, a tall first hump, a lower second one. End on the baseline with a short upstroke into the i. Keeping the second hump lower than the first gives N a natural forward lean.
The s in Nicholas. Cursive s rises to a sharp point and closes at the bottom. It is small and easily lost in a fast signature; a clear point at the top keeps it readable.
The o in Nicholas. o closes at the top and leaves from there, so the next letter starts from a high join. Keep the o round and closed, or it reads as a u or a v.
Tall letters: h and l. Nicholas has 2 letters that rise above the others. They are the skyline of your signature: keep their loops on the same slant and about the same height, and the name looks steady even when it is fast.
The dot on i. Most quick signatures leave it out. If you keep it, add it after you finish the name, a little to the right, as a fast tick or a small circle. That last dot is a classic finishing touch.
The final s. Nicholas ends on a small letter with a short exit. Finish with a flick upwards to the right, or add a separate underline to close the signature.
A long name: 8 letters. Sign the beginning clearly and let the rest compress into a quick, flowing line; nobody reads every letter of a long signature. A narrow, fast style suits it better than a wide, ornate one.
