Obama Name Signs

Since yesterday I opened this can of worms, I thought I would continue it.

Here is another option - based on the sign for President.

And yet another, picked up from a school and I believe based on the sign for "future"

This vlogger brings up three, the one from yesterday, one based on president above and this one, based on "change".

I find it interesting - some deaf are responding to comments that Name Signs are the way people are identified in the deaf world. Others are admitting they are still spelling his name - it's only five letters long after all.

I fear my teacher was of that latter opinion - I believe she would have added "get over it."

So what do you think - or better yet, what are you seeing? We're mostly seeing the one based on the logo (yesterday's vlog citation) or spelled around my neck of the woods...
