Date - April 2016 Monogram Etiquette

What is a monogram? A monogram tells a story. It suggests who we are or want to be, tradition, and individual identity. A monogram consists of a person’s initials — usually a variation on the first, middle, and last name—and much has been written about proper monogram etiquette. Here are the traditional guidelines to monogramming along with non-traditional ones, so you can make your own monogram tell a story about you. Which Initials and in What Order?

Single Monograms Two Initial Monograms Single-initial monograms typically use the last name. Two-initial monograms combine the first and last initials. Example for John Smith: Example for John Smith: S JS * LAST* *FIRST*LAST*

Three Initial Monograms The three-letter monogram is probably the most classic of traditional monograms and has the most options.

Traditional Women Married Women First, LAST, Middle. The middle name is typically dropped. Example for Jane Rose Smith: First, LAST, Maiden. JSR Example for Jane Rose Smith Black: *FIRST*LAST*MIDDLE* JSB *FIRST*LAST*MAIDEN* Traditional Men First, MIDDLE, Last. Married Couple Example for John Arthur Smith: Joint monograms begin with her first initial followed JAS by the surname and then his first initial. *FIRST*MIDDLE*LAST* Example for John & Jane Smith It is also correct to put a man’s surname JSJ initial in the middle: *HER FIRST*MARRIED LAST*HIS FIRST JSA *FIRST*LAST-MIDDLE* Name/Phrase Use the entire family name or monogram with a favorite phrase. Example for John Smith Smith LAST
