What does Michael Jordan’s signature look like?
The large opening M drops into several narrow crossing strokes. A thin, almost horizontal run carries the middle of the name toward a second wide capital, followed by a long low finish.

Two long capitals carry a thin connecting line
Start at the upper-left curve and follow its return into the pointed lower strokes. The first large form occupies considerably more vertical space than the small connected marks after it. Across the middle, the line becomes light and low before a broad arc opens the surname. That second arc repeats the spacious beginning without making the two word groups identical. The right-hand ending stretches away from the smaller surname forms. Looking at the two capitals first, then the intervening letter band, makes this otherwise highly compressed autograph easier to follow.

Opening, letter body and finish
The opening stays near the height of the body letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 1.01×, while the whole image is 4.88 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.
Loops and the lower flourish
The sample contains 4 enclosed loops and 3 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
Michael Jordan’s signature in graphology
Traditional graphology reads conspicuous capitals as emphasis on the public self. Here the two broad openings make that emphasis visible at separate points in the name. The long, economical linking strokes are associated with directness and forward movement; follow them separately from the looping capitals.
Follow the forward-leaning strokes in this image alongside the smaller body letters. For another perspective on your own writing, the handwriting analysis tool brings slant, size and spacing into a full-page reading.
