It turns corners instead of rounding them, and that is the whole temperament.

Signature ideas
Each one is a genuine drawing of the name — not a font — made by the same studio that draws the paid commission, with the design decisions stated under it.

A dramatic and level hand. The stroke swells and thins by a factor of 2.5.
Confident · flowing · signature-legible
the full name · underlined in one return stroke
An unbroken and dramatic hand. Only 7 pen lifts in the whole thing. The "r" in "Worth" is the letter carrying it, because that is where your hand is already fastest.
Commanding · sharp · signature-legible
the full name · finished on a long sail
A rounded and spare hand. Every turn is rounded off. Almost nothing else here leaves on an exit stroke long enough to carry the eye off the page.
Confident · sharp · fully readable
the full name · underlined in one return stroke
A deliberate and airy hand. It is built in 13 separate strokes.

the full name
A theatrical and level hand. One letter is pushed well past the proportions of its neighbors. It is the rare one that adds no closing gesture at all.

the full name · underlined in one return stroke
An airy and even hand. The letters are set well apart.
Everything starts with the R. The studio holds 2 distinct constructions of that capital — drawn from how professionals actually open a name — and each direction below commits to one of them.
After that, the lowercase run does the work: the h and t reach into the ascender line, which gives the mark its upper silhouette and the double t is a rhythm no other letter pair gives — two identical strokes that must agree.
At 5 letters, Rhett sits in the comfortable middle — long enough to build rhythm, short enough to stay one uninterrupted gesture.
These studies are drawn on the first name alone, because that is how the question is usually asked — but a working signature is built on your full name: the second capital, the balance between the two words, and the short everyday version are where the real design decisions live.
The studio draws twenty directions for your full name in about a minute, and the kit — the files, the report that explains the design, and the stroke-order lesson — is what the three you choose become.
