How to sign Oliver: tips from its letters
What to do with each part of Oliver, from the first capital to the last stroke.
The capital O. O is a closed oval finished with a small loop at the top. Start at the top right, go round anticlockwise, close with the loop, and leave from there into the l at the height of the small letters. A narrow, slightly tilted O looks more like handwriting than a perfect circle.
The v in Oliver. v ends high, with a small curl at the top, so the letter after it starts from the top rather than the baseline. Keep that join short and level, or the v and the next letter blur into a w.
The r in Oliver. Cursive r has a small shoulder that juts out to the right before it comes down. Keep the shoulder visible; flattened, the r reads as an i or a bump. Many people use the printed r in a signature to keep it clear.
A tall letter: l. The l is the one small letter in Oliver that rises above the others, so it sets the rhythm: give it a clear loop on the same slant as the capital, about the capital’s 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 r. Oliver 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.
6 letters. A name of this length can be written in full and still look fast. Keep the letters joined and let them shrink a little towards the end, the way real signatures do.
