How do you sign "Esperanto" in ASL?

I'm talking about myself in American Sign Language class today. I've looked up all the words I don't know so I can practice and learn them. I want to say that I've studied Spanish, Japanese, Esperanto, and ASL. However, I can't find the word "Esperanto" in my ASL dictionary.

Does anyone have a link to an ASL picture dictionary that includes "Esperanto"?

Just a guess here but I'd bet I'm not far off. Combine the signs for 'a person with hope', since I'm sure you know Esperanto means 'one who hopes'.

Can't you just spell it out and mean the same thing?
