Your handwritten signature.

[Baz]

First two initials and then my last name.

I've done it that way all my life.

On record this way so never any issues at bank, etc.

I've been told the more neatly and easily read the signature - the MORE difficult it is to be forged. Those that use scribbles (like me!) - makes it easier for someone to fake.

I don't sign mine the same way once ... much less twice

If signing an important paper or document...I always revert to my grade school penmanship.

It was hammered into us every day. Correct angle and position in the hand. Leading from the right in a straight line. It's hard to forget things like that.

If signing a cc receipt....any ink on the paper will do.

I voted in person instead.

Not an option in all mail voting Oregon. But then, voting doesn't matter here anyway..

The "N" is uncommonly legible in this one.

N! (some will remember)

I think the K in mine is legible ...

It does to me, and I make sure I vote in every single election.

I have an illegible signature for normal everyday things. I have a legible one for autographs, like when I'm signing my book for someone, or signing programs for plays I've been in. People actually ask for those, even in our little community theater. It's kind of fun to pretend I'm famous sometimes. People want to be able to see who's signatures they have, so I make it legible.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

That was some funny schit ... and I don't even care about that aspect. Just a hateful, angry man that posted one of the most vile things I've ever read here. Long gone and good riddance .

K!

It's not uncommon that I have to remind someone that I'm applying my signature, not my name.

That's correct. As I was leaving the hospital with my right arm in a sling and they bring discharge papers and I'm like?? Nurse says a X by your left hand will be fine.

Well, she witnessed it, so I guess I'm good.

Thinking about changing my name to Dorothy.... I'll go by Dot ... my sig is gonna be soooo easy!

signed....

Over the years my handwriting has gone from scribble to chicken scratch and it’s mostly my initials stretched out.
