Monogramming is an art that we respect here at United Monograms. Sometimes people ask the question, why are those initials not in the right order? As the #1 Online Shop for Monograms- We are here to answer that question for you!
These people clearly need a little lesson in Monogram Etiquette. Since you know we love to monogram everything, here is the etiquette we go by when monogramming.
First Name, NEW LAST NAME, Maiden name (or middle name if you prefer). When a woman is married, a few things in the monogram world are up to her! She can ditch her middle name completely, and use her last name as her new middle name OR she can keep her middle name. This is your preference, or whichever you choose when you change your name! We think either one is acceptable! Example: If our friend Anne Marie Price married David Brown her monogram would be EITHER (option 1): aBp or (option 2): aBm
Bride's First Name, MARRIAGE LAST NAME, groom's first name. The reasoning for this one is easy, ladies first! Since Anne & David Brown are now happily married, their shared monogram would be: aBa
I cannot wait until I’ll be mrs Taylor Jones!!! I’m definitely going to have to stock up on some cute monogram shirts!!
I’m married and choose the way without my maiden name!! I love it so much more since my old initials were CMF and now it’s CFM but I always monogram CMM.
I actually saw a post someone made wondering how monograms worked if you have 4 names. Interesting!
I’ve always wondered why everyone chose to capitalize and place the first letter of their Last name in the middle of their monogram. I obviously did the same following the crowd 😂thank you for writing this article!! It definitely makes sense to me now!
