If the design is three letters, One big in center, and two on the sides, example (mJc) which one is the first name, which one is the middle name, and which one is the Last name? I tried to research on the internet but I didn't get my answer, and I know someone must know here. Thanks, Carolyn

I just finished an outfit with monogram letters, and what I did was the first name is the first letter, the big-center letter is the last name and the third letter is the middle name of the person or child.

I would also go along with what Melita says. I think that is the usual format.

Thanks Jo, you're up late too! I need to design some pillow cases for one of my patients. Her son is getting married and I just wanted to design a monogramed pillowcase for her.

From the answers I am getting the last name should be in the middle, this is why I posted this question because I have seen mixed answers. I am going to go with the most common suggestion. Thanks for your input. Maybe they did monogramming different back then.

955First name initial, surname initial, middle name initial.
or husband's first Initial, surname initial, wife's first initial.
This is the standard as far as I am aware.
