4 Circle Monogram options

This is a nicely versatile style, you can use either two or three letters, and have them be either black on white background or knockout white on color. Only a few of these fonts let you have the choice of using either two or three letters for your circle monogram — so it's one of the few that works even without that middle initial / surname letter. Available to purchase on fontbros.


Semicirculus monogram

This half-circle monogram font is the perfect choice for if you want a cirlce monogram but aren't ready to go all the way. The inspiration is a vintage sans serif letterset from an embroidery publication. The font was created initially to be embroidered into handkerchiefs, giving it that kitch, classic look. The font joins together to create a semi-circular monogram of letters, and then there are optional flourishes to round out the full circle (when you're ready). These ornaments were pulled from antique specimen books, given a brush up, and then tweaked to be able to be combined with the font set. It makes a lovely accent and complete the monogram's full form. Hearkening back to the early 1900s, this is one of many monogram designs that offers a two letter format that is either adorned or interwoven with flairs and ornamentation.

Frames and flourishes

Once you've got your monogram all selected, here are some frames to outline your work, and make you that much fancier.

Escutcheon Monogram

From designer and font enthusiast Brian Bonislawsky, this font is a twist on the circular monogram. Rather than having the letters themselves form the circle, the outline of this escutcheon type design makes the circle obvious. Plus there's lots of colors to play with. 


Monogram frames and outlines


Vecteezy has a huge library of frames, from flourishy to straightforward, and outlines in every file format. Many free! Just poke around in the shop to find the perfect outline for your special monogram. There may be almost too many to choose from, so we recommend heading to the keywords tagged at the bottom and selecting the look/feel/ style that you like best, and sorting from there. But, pretty much all these vector images will look great with your circle monogram.
