Can I type my own names and print them all at once?

Yes. The names are plain text: replace Maya, Leo and Sofia with your own, one per line, up to 500 characters in all. Download PDF saves every page in one file, and Print sheet sends them all to the printer.

Do the name sheets have handwriting lines?

Yes. Every row has four guide lines: a top line, a dashed midline, a baseline and a dotted line below for the tails of letters such as g and y.

Can I make cursive name tracing sheets?

Yes. Choose Cursive or Formal cursive under Letters and the name is repeated in that script on the same lines. A name too wide to fit once across a row is named in a message, and a smaller row size gives it more room.

What do the print letters look like?

They are Roboto, a typeface with the two-storey a and g of printed books, not the single-storey ball-and-stick letters many preschools teach. Print a page and compare it with your class alphabet before making a set.

Name Tracing Worksheets

This page opens in Name mode with print letters at 1 in rows, the largest size. Type one name per line and each name gets its own page: a dark model row with the name repeated across it, then two light gray trace rows and a blank row, repeated to the foot of the page. The three sample names make three pages, and a class list makes one page per child in a single PDF.

Fonts, served unmodified from this site under the SIL Open Font License 1.1: Roboto 3.015 (licence, source), Dancing Script 2.001 (licence, source) and Allura 1.110 (licence, source). Print letters are Roboto, a typeface with the two-storey a and g of printed books, so they are not a school ball-and-stick model.

Accuracy. Letter shapes come straight from the fonts, Roboto for print and Dancing Script or Allura for cursive, so they are font examples, not a named school handwriting method, and the sheets give no stroke order. Row sizes are exact only when the page is printed at 100%, not fit to page, and a character the chosen font lacks is named in a warning and left out rather than printed as an empty box. The fonts are served from this site, unmodified, under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, with their notices.
