How to sign Penelope: tips from its letters

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

  1. The capital P. Write the stem, come back up and draw the bowl, closing it at the middle of the stem. P does not join well, so either leave a small gap before the e or stretch the bowl stroke to the right so it reaches over the next letters.

  2. The o in Penelope. 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.

  3. The e in Penelope. A lowercase e is a small loop. Keep the loop open: in a quick signature e tends to close into a dash, which is fine at the end of a name but makes the middle hard to read.

  4. A tall letter: l. The l is the one small letter in Penelope 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.

  5. Below the line: p. The p drops below the baseline in the middle of Penelope and gives the signature depth. Make its loop a little longer than in your everyday writing, and close it before you carry on.

  6. The final e. Penelope ends on a round letter. Its exit stroke can stretch out along the baseline and turn into an underline or a short wave.

  7. 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.

Questions about signing Penelope

What is the best signature style for Penelope?

Start with Herr Von Muellerhoff, Birthstone, and Ms Madi: a long name needs a narrow, fast style. Try them with your last name above, then open the one you like in the signature generator to adjust the size and slant.

How do I write a capital P for my signature?

Write the stem, come back up and draw the bowl, closing it at the middle of the stem. P does not join well, so either leave a small gap before the e or stretch the bowl stroke to the right so it reaches over the next letters.

Should I sign Penelope in full or with initials?

Use your full name, or initial and last name, on contracts and official forms, and keep it the same every time. Initials like PJ are for initialling pages, not for signing. A first name alone is fine for cards and letters.
