Decorative
Decorative fonts are very easy to identify. They are the ones that look fun or distinctive. There are countless styles to fit any mood you wish to express, however, these should not be used in large blocks of text. They are great for adding interest to a design or page layout but are very tiring to read in large blocks (Williams).
