Monograms & Monogram Style Engraving:

Monograms feature the LAST name initial as a larger character in the middle of the monogram, the first initial on the left and the middle initial on the right. Therefore, if the name were "Justin Charles Morgan," the monogram would appear as "JMC"

We offer 2 specific monogram fonts for engraving - the Circle Monogram and the Interlocking Monogram. 

Also, you may choose any of the regular fonts to be engraved in "monogram style" which means that the center letter (last name) is larger than the other two.  Here are some examples:

Engraving Initials:

If you would rather have three initials straight across, the monogram rule doesn't apply. In this case, you would enter the person's initials just as they correspond with the name. In this example, "Justin Charles Morgan" would appear as "JCM" with the letters straight across.

Engraving Full Names

When having a full name engraved, specify whether you want the name to be in all capital letters or in title case.  Fancy fonts like Double Script or Old English typically look better in title case, while block fonts like Double Block or Roman 4-Line are fine either way.

We will engrave the piece EXACTLY as you type it into the shopping cart, so please check your work.
