I want to buy something off of Ebay for one of my BMs, but I don't know how to do a Monogram for a hyphenated last name...
For Example: Jennifer Marie Smith-Jones
How would I make a Monogram for that????
Thanks!!!

Re: How Would You Monogram a Hyphenated Last Name..
You just use the first letter of the hyphenated last name.
ie: Christine Ann Smith-Jones CSA

Thanks ChristinaAE
The 'A' is for her middle name...
I'm personalizing it for my bm. I know she might use it for work, so I don't want to put her first name only, maybe I should put just her first initail..???

I wanted to help you visually so I created a photo to show what I mean (see bottom pic).
You always put the last name in the middle, usually a bit larger than the left and right initials. Then the left is always the first name, and the right is the MIDDLE name (the 'A' in your question above.)
If it is hyphenated, would you be allowed to do TWO last name initials? So Jennifer Marie Smith-Jones would be as shown below. Or you can have a DOT or hyphen stitch in between the SJ like I did in the last monogram. Sometimes they are not able to do a complicated monogram though. Please let me know if this helps!
