Monogram rules for three letters Traditionally, the first letters of their first, last and middle name are used, in that order. For couples, if they share their last name, the last name remains in the middle with the initials of their first names on the left and right side.

One of the most common ways to monogram a name with four letters is to have all four letters in a row in order "First," "Middle," "Middle," "Last," or for me, "MSXW." For this type of monogram, sometimes called a "block" monogram, all the letters are the same size and are usually a blocky, straight font.

This format is as follows: first name initial, last name initial, and middle initial. The last name initial, in the middle, is bigger than the two side initials. When placing order, be sure to state you would like,"traditional 3-letter monogram," to ensure proper initial placement.

Traditionally, a monogram reads First Name Initial, Last Name Initial, Middle Name or Maiden Name Initial. With the Last Name Initial being the larger Middle Initial. For example, if you had the name Kelsie Elizabeth Vogds, her monogram would read KVE.

Three Initials. If using three initials, the monogram traditionally uses all three names (i.e., first, middle and last names). If all the letters in the monogram are the same height, then the ordering is first name initial, middle name initial, last name initial.

For an individual, the first name initial is followed by the last and middle. The last name initial (center) is larger than those on the side.
