Gilliard claimed in his memoir, "With the initials of their Christian names they had formed a composite Christian name, Otma, and under this common signature they frequently gave their presents or sent letters written by one of them on behalf of all." However, I've never once come across a photo of such a signature, or seen it used in any of the imperial family's letters or diaries. The closest I've come is a poem by the tutor Petrov, addressed "For O.T.M.A."
