Personal Branding Logos

I overlooked the fact that I'd need a logo for my personal branding. So I had a look at some existing logos on Behance and Pinterest for personal branding. I was particularly interested in ones that use initials, as that makes sense to me.

I notice that the ones I like tend to be in a square ration or very close to it, and only use two colours, black and white in particular in most cases. Of the two that use colour, one will predominantly displayed on a screen, and the other uses foil blocking, which is a process I don't deem to be necessary for a business card for myself because of it's high end and expensive connotations.

It's going to be important to consider how the letters M and B can fit within each other or join together, which is how the black and white logos here have created abstract shapes to make them more interesting. I notice with the MHV one that you can't help but think of HMV because of how similar the style of the lettering is. This is something I'll need to consider, as there is a childrens games company called MB that I'll have to avoid confusion with, although hopefully this shouldn't be difficult at all.
