Eleanor is a stately name that stretches across the page with seven letters. The double-e sound (though spelled differently) and the n-o-r ending give it a flowing feel. The capital E sets a strong tone, and the l adds height in the second position.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital E finishes with a rightward stroke. Push directly up into the tall l without lifting your pen.
Close the a before transitioning into the n. If the a stays open, it looks like a u.
The n ends with a downstroke that curves right at the baseline. Carry that curve into the round o.
Break the name into two chunks when practicing: Elea-nor. Master each half before combining.
The l should be the tallest letter in the name. It anchors the visual profile.
Keep the e-a-n section evenly spaced. Those three letters can bunch up if you rush.
