Closing lines for emails
January 8, 2012 3:37 PM   Subscribe

I'm tired of closing my emails with, "Regards", "Cheers", or, "Yours sincerely". Can you give me good alternatives for all occasions, from the formal to the semi-formal to the completely casual or hilarious?

In my experience, the most common meaning-neutral closer for use with strangers and acquaintances is

Best,

I say "take care" and "happy trails" a lot. And sometimes I close with something totally random, like "cheese" or "hello" or "your mom".

I have weird friends, though, so make sure you know your audience.

As phunniemee says, it's fun to just throw in the whackiest thing you can think of ... if you can be fairly sure that it will not be misinterpreted.
I'll say, "From the Desk of The President", or "Cynically Yours", or whatever seems to fit the mood of the email.

-General KLF

I never sign off by using the above closing, but I really like it. Especially since it can be used sincerely or ironically!

I prefer to stick with "Sincerely," which is something that you probably don't want to use as much since you already use 'Yours, Sincerely." I really like when professors write "Best," but I dislike when people say "Thanks," because it seems so meaningless to insert that at the end of the email.

I don't like "Best" so much, but I often use "Best wishes"; and I often do "Thanks again" or "Thanking you" if I've been asking for/about something. For friends, it's "Hugs".

I rarely end an email with a closing, although I often end the more formal emails with "Thank you for your time and attention." Letters usually get something like "Yours," for formal, "Fondly" for friends, "Your Humble Obedient Servant" for special friends, and "Yours in the Name of the Worm which Dieth Not" for the friends who know where the bodies are.

In practice I use "Best", "All the best", or "Best wishes". However, I sometimes use "Peace", "Peace demands" (a silly anglicization of Hebrew "drishat shalom"), and "Protect yo' neck", among others.

Nthing that all the academics I know use "Best" as their closing. I recommend it. I do not like it. Late at night, at my most paranoid, I have been known to open an email, stare at the closing, and wonder if all these professors are bragging about themselves.

In other words: "Best wishes" for the win!
posted by artemisia at 4:53 PM on January 8, 2012 [6 favorites]


Yeah, "Best" just gets up my nose (and I'm an academic FWIW) - it's not so much that it's a FU, but that it just hangs there non-grammatically, devoid of content, a thought unfinished. It's not meaning-neutral, it's perfunctory. At least the classics such as "Yours sincerely" or "Regards" have a semblance of content. "Best" is just a lazy little fart in the wind.

I use "Regards" unless there is content in the mail that might indicate "best wishes" or "thanks" or "love" are in order. 90% of emails don't need anything other than a name, anyway. Obviously, tailoring to the content is the key, as some of the above responses indicate.
posted by Rumple at 4:53 PM on January 8, 2012 [6 favorites]


I also dislike "Best", and never use it.

I tend to use "thanks" a lot when I'm communicating with a superior. It does risk sounding ingratiating unless there's even a remote reason for thanking the person, but it's become a habit.

I frequently use "Best wishes," and, because I do a lot of correspondence with members of my fraternity "Fraternally and Amicably," or "Fraternally and Cordially," which has resulted in the occasional us of "Cordially,".

Best is definitely favored among the college professors/administrators/officious students I email with. I think it seems sort of cold and distant (and annoying when people my age use it). Professors quite often just sign off with their initials.

Kind Regards, is a nice one I came across in the UK.

I personally use Thanks, and sometimes Thanks very much, but only when I'm asking questions or a favor of someone. Otherwise I use Sincerely (I like the old fashioned uh, sincerity of it). Or just "-Margaret" for casual emails or when I'm emailing back and forth multiple times with someone.

Surrounded by academics, yet not at the stage where it's not presumptuous simply to sign off with my initials, I've fallen into the "best" habit, although I totally agree with Rumple's send-up of it.

However the worst sign-off in my opinion is "Regards". Something about that just feels incredibly icy. It's consonant-heavy, clipped, and is basically the verbal equivalent of a simultaneous slap in the face while getting the finger. "Warmest regards" is even worse, with its ironic faux warmth, and I reserve it for break-up emails and bitchy-polite replies to students asking for extensions.

I also used to do the "[random adverb] yours" route ("Irrepressibly yours," "Ostentatiously yours," "Incorrigibly yours" "Convivially yours" "Irrevocably yours after 7 days from date of purchase" "Yours every Sunday, Wednesday and sometimes lunch hours if I'm not too busy," "Yours is mine but mine is still mine,") but something a bit more tailored to your addressee is definitely better. Stuff I've used:

"[Muchos] Besos [y abrazos]," - to a friend who loves the Spanish football team

"deine [my name]" - to a college friend I took German classes with. I usually start with "Liebe [her name]".

"Don't ever change, you hungry little bashful hound" - to a Rufus Wainwright fan. Or some other apt lyric from his/her favorite song or artist.

To someone who grew up in the 80s, when these really corny acronyms were popular: "J.A.P.A.N." (Just Always Pray At Night) or "I.T.A.L.Y." (I Trust And Love You), or some other country, and I'll just make something up.

But sometimes I admit I get lazy and just use "Talk to you soon!", "See you around!", "Keep on chuggin'/truckin'/swimming!", "Keep warm" (for winter time), "Keep safe", "Stay smexy," "Bee [drawn picture of a bee] happy", "With a hunka hunka burnin' love," or whatever random thing comes to mind at the moment: "Money up front", "I remain / but an egg," "Don't be a stranger", "The voice in your head when you reach for that third doughnut," "Wishing you days of light-hearted laughter and nights of hot booty," etc.

Or just: "Have a good weekend!" Why not? I'd actually appreciate that, in (semi-formal) work e-mails.

For work, it's always:
Thanks, [me]

If it's a more formal email, it's:
Thanks,

But I work in a service profession, so almost all of my communications are asking for something, or have the implied "thank you for your patronage" in them.

A thing I really hate is using a dash instead of a comma. Not so much at the end, but at the beginning, it always comes off as ignorant. The written version of starting a telephone call without a greeting.

I always enjoyed switching it up in a different way. Using standard valedictions, but mixing it up by signing the wrong name. Stolen from Monty Python.

I routinely use "Best" for nonpersonal e-mail and do not understand the hate for it ("it just hangs there non-grammatically"—like just about every other conventional greeting or signoff; what's the grammatical context for "Hi"?). For "completely casual or hilarious," I sometimes go with "Hang by your thumbs," which I haven't seen listed yet.
