I’ve been wondering, if you never learned cursive writing, how do you sign your name, like on a lease or other place where you have to sign?

Do you just print your name like you would anything else? Or maybe you looked up how to write just the cursive letters needed for your signature? Or maybe invented a way to sort of connect your printed letters together so it looks like a signature? Or … ?

edit: Specifically hoping to hear from people who did not learn to write cursive, please indicate if that applies in your answer. Thanks

    For people who learned cursive, it’s natural and intuitive to develop a unique, flowing signature that’s hard for someone else either to forge or even guess what it might look like.

    I learned cursive and no it fucking isn’t natural and intuitive. My signature was never consistent when I tried and now I just scribble chicken scratch that doesn’t even superficially resemble the letters in my name because I don’t regularly write in cursive and signatures don’t matter 99.99% of the time.
