To start signing “My name is …” in American Sign Language (ASL) you just combine the signs “my“ and “name“.
To sign “my“ in American Sign Language (ASL) form a flat hand and touch your chest twice. To perform the sign “name“ stick out your index and middle finger of both hands. Form a cross by moving the fingers of both hands together. Repeat the movement. Afterward, spell your name using the finger alphabet.
