Name tracing worksheets — type a name, print, trace

A child’s own name is usually the first word they want to write, and the one they care most about. This page builds a tracing sheet around it: type the name and the whole page fills with it, with the first copy in dark letters as a model and the others in light grey to trace, then an empty line to try alone. Three styles grow with your child: big letters for the very young, smaller letters on handwriting lines, and joined-up cursive. Arabic names are written from right to left in clear Naskh letters, or in Ruqaa for the cursive style.

✍️ Best for ages 3–7

How to get the most from these sheets

• Use a capital only for the first letter, the way your child will write it at school.
• Start each letter at the top and trace without lifting the pencil when you can.
• Praise the attempt on the last empty line, not only perfect copies.
• Print one page per child for a class: just change the name and print again.
