How do you say Anthony in sign language?

There are no names that have sign language equivalents. Instead, each individual is given a new name in sign language that is typically the first letter of the name used with some sign that characterizes that person. For example, if Anthony plays basketball, his sign name might be an A shape hand in the sign for basketball or if Anthony is very tall, his sign name might be an A shape hand in the sign for tall. Just like any other language, you probably can't choose your own sign name but your sign name is given to you.
