What is the proper method for securing a mooring line to a deck 'Cornamusa' (Cleat)?

1. Tying multiple simple overhand knots around the horns until the cleat is fully covered
2. Wrapping the line only once around the base without any cross turns
3. Making a single half hitch and pulling it as tight as possible
4. Taking a round turn around the base, followed by figure-eight cross turns, finished with an inverted half hitch
