I'm writing on the card for a present and I'm not sure if she has one L or LL. I looked on the present she gave me and her name was scribled so I can't tell. Is this a toss up or do I write really messy so she can't tell. The percentage play is LL right?

I would go with two L's.

I'm sure that this doesn't help, but I do know a Michele.

My wife spells it Michele. I have dated one who spells it Michelle. And one of our football board members spells it Mishelle.

Go Figure.

wrote 2 ll really close together one dark and the other lightly. She can interpret however she spells. Einstein has got nothing on me.

Just use the first letter - nice script and bold
