Question for those who didn't learn cursive

Question for those who didn't learn cursive - Lemmy.World

I’ve been wondering, if you never learned cursive writing, how do you sign your name, like on a lease or other place where you have to sign? Do you just print your name like you would anything else? Or maybe you looked up how to write just the cursive letters needed for your signature? Or maybe invented a way to sort of connect your printed letters together so it looks like a signature? Or … ?

I learned cursive, but my signature doesn’t actually resemble what my name would look like written in cursive. It’s more of a highly stylized version of what my name would look like in cursive, but developed over the last 40 years or so. Kind of a piece of art that I developed that is very much mine and I’d be very surprised if anyone could ever copy it. That sort of the point of the signature.
