The initials should be in ink and written by your hand. They can be in either print or cursive but should be unique to you. If adding your initials to a small change in a contract, be sure to add them in the margin next to the updated information.

Generally, you use the first letter of your first and the first letter of your last name as your initials, but you can also include the first letter of your middle name or maiden name, or more than one letter from one of the names (e.g. someone with the last name DiAmico using both D and A).

Initialing serves as a precautionary measure meant to protect the integrity of the signed document. Interestingly, adding initials on every page of a contract is not a legal requirement for a party to express consent; a signature is sufficient to create a valid contract (under Luxembourgish law, at least).

The initial is a marking on the end of the page. For physical documentation, it is done by ink. Much like a signature, the initial is not something generic but rather, exclusive to the individual using it. It's a small personalisation to acknowledge you have read the page and agreed to the terms on it.

Initialling a document means to add in the initials of one or all of the parties at the end of each page or on certain pages of the document. Initials on a document are representative of the signing parties' consent to the content on the page they have initialled.

According to Merriam-Webster law dictionary, the terms initials means: ?to authenticate or give preliminary approval to by affixing the initials of an authorizing representative? (Merriam Webster Law dictionary)
