Hi everybody,
I have a question on part 11 of N400 form. The instructions clearly says, "You should sign your full name without abbreviating it or using initials". The only signature I have always used (i.e. on passport, DMV license, INS documents in the past etc.) has been my initials that looks wiggly-squiggly (in other words it can be called not-legible).
The question is should I just write my full name anyway, or should I write both my full name and short-signature beside it. Any insight will be much appreciated.

Regards,
 
Regardless of what the "Guide to Naturalization" may say, I believe I signed my name the usual way (i.e., not really legible) in part 11 of the N-400. However, at my interview, the officer had me sign i.e., write my complete name in parts 13/14.
 
I signed my name as the usual way. However, my interview officer asked me to cross out my "usual signature" because it was not "legal signature".

I signed as "YY ZZ". However, my legal name was "XX ZZ", but I was used to be called as "YY ZZ".

My interview officer asked me to sign "XX ZZ" which I had not signed such name for 20 years or so.

She told me after my named, I could start signing as "YY ZZ".
