I was talking to a friend recently about sign names, and the use for them as well as the need for them. I am still struck by the difference in regions: where I grew up we all got one movement and one initial. Here wher I live now, since so many of the children are mainstremaed, they tend to get first run name signs from teachers. The teachers, who want to teach respect to the students, have two letter names, and so many of the children do as well. Then, when they grow to adulthood, their names change as the other adults rename them first by some characteristic and then it morphs into something more neutral.
This vlog is congratulating President Obama on his election- and introducing him to his own name sign. I don't know the name sign is standard through out the United States, but iti seems to me the deaf of Chicago or in this case Washington DC have the first claim on naming him.
