A monogram is a motif made by overlapping or combining two or more letters or other graphemes to form one symbol. Monograms are often made by combining the initials of an individual or a company. Monograms may be used as recognizable symbols or logos. An individual's monogram is often a very fancy piece of art for adorning luggage, clothing, and so forth.
