Sign your name however you want, people will accept it, heck you can scribble chicken scratches as your signature and they will accept it. The whole "English is not the official language" statement, while correct, is super arrogant. Why create a problem where there is none.

Why don't you sign it with a big X like all the others that can't write? In the United States all the words are written with letters that come from any letters from A to Z. You want to sign your name in Arabic, pack your bags and go to a country that you can do so. It's not illegal, none of your rights are being valuated, you're in America, live with it or return to the country where you can write the way you want.

If your name is 'Joe' in English, then it is 'Joe' in Arabic(?), or Chinese, or whatever other language(s) you pretend to speak.
Our Constitution is written in English, that's official enough for the majority of America!

How is a name any particular language? I'd think your signature could be whatever it is.

Yeah, that's fine. Good luck finding a keyboard with those characters most places here, though.
Your signature is your signature. It seems to me that faking something else would be worse. It is identification, not communication.

No. Your signature is your way of signing who you are.
People do it in any language they want and the way some people make theirs it may as well be gibberish or pig latin.

Your question is Moot and Specious without context. Your signature is your signature. As long as it matches the LEGAL ID it is attached to...who cares.
