But shouldn't you write his name in Cirth? I think that was the script
Hobbits used. Quoting <http://www.forodrim.org/daeron/mdtci.html#DTS7>:

"'I cannot read the fiery letters,' said Frodo" (LR 1 II:73), and
  Gandalf explained that "[t]he letters are Elvish, of an ancient mode,
  but the language is that of Mordor" (LR 1 II:74).
