Assuming you me American Sign Language (it is not universal), you can finger spell it. "T" is a fist with your thumb stuck between your middle finger and index finger. "I" is a fist with your pinky up. "F" is similar to an okay sign, except you face you palm toward the person and put the pad of your thumb over your index finger's fingernail. For double letters you can do two things: you can drag your hand outwards for a short length, or you can make a small bounce with your hand, once again bouncing outwards. "A" is a fist with you thumb pressed up on the side of the fist (Not over the knuckles). "N" is like "T", but your thumb is stuck between your middle finger and your ring finger. "Y" is with your thumb and pinky up with the other three fingers down (think of making a hand telephone). Make sure to sign with your dominant hand and not to move your hand unnecessarily when signing. Also try to finger spell in the trunk/ chest area of your torso around shoulder height.
However, usually in the Deaf community you are given a sign name, an abbreviation of your name that relates to one of your characteristics or tells a story about yourself. For example, a sign name for a fat man named Bob could be the sign for fat with your hands shape in the letter B. It is considered inappropriate to give yourself a sign name. It is the same for giving others sign names if you are not deaf.
