Υπογραφή
Explanation:
Υπογραφή (ypografi) = signature, or to be more precise "ποίκιλμα" (pikilma), in the sense of the "decorations" of a signature. The latter is rather litterary. A more colloquial term would be "τζίφρα" (tzifra)

φιοριτούρα / διάνθισμα


Explanation:
As a verb: Χρησιμοποιώ φιοριτούρες / διανθίσματα (ωραίες φράσεις).

By the way, the Greek word "φιοριτούρα" comes from the same root as "flourish" (italian).
