Three Letter Monogram Place the initials in order (first, middle, last) at the same size for an individual monogram.

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 example, "MSXW." For this type of monogram, sometimes called a "block" monogram, all the letters are the same size and are usually in an unembellished font.

3 Letter Monograms The most common monogram you'll come across is the traditional 3 letter monogram of a person's first, middle, and last initials.

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.

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.

A classic personal monogram typically consists of three initials in the natural order of first, middle, and last name. If there is no middle name, then the monogram is simplified to only two initials, first and last name. All of these letters are the same size and alignment creating a block monogram.

A traditional 3 letter monogram is the person's first name initial on the left, the last name initial in the middle & larger, and the middle name initial on the right. If the monogram is for a married woman, it has been traditional to substitute her maiden name initial for her middle name initial on the right.
