Christian is nine letters long with the Ch opening, the r-i-s middle, and the ti-a-n ending. Multiple direction changes and the sheer length make this a demanding name. The hr connection early on and the st pairing in the middle both need careful attention.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital C ends at the baseline. Push up into the h's tall stem with a committed upstroke. This dramatic height change sets the pace for the name.
The small cursive r peaks at the midline and drops into the i. Keep the r as a small bump so it does not overpower the i.
The t connects to the i at the midline. Cross the t and dot the i after writing all nine letters.
Break it into Chris-tian for practice. The break after the s is natural.
Cross the t and dot both i's only after finishing all nine letters.
The Ch opening is the hardest connection. If you can nail that, the rest follows.
