Wordmark vs. Image-based logo

[chromaticgreys]

My type teacher wants us to design a word mark and then apply it to something. I chose to use my name for the word mark, and then creating a branding package. Instead of just doing a word mark, I also created an image-based logo for instances in which I might not necessarily want the longer mark

Looks like "Mr." in lowercase. =\
But yea, all your suggestions were spot-on

don't know if this is straying too far from your original or if it even helps, but you could play with connecting the letterforms in some way... just something to think about at least in case it spurs some other idea
