Elena starts with a capital E and features the l as the tallest letter giving the name its visual peak. The e-n-a ending is smooth and natural. The l-e connection in the middle is a height drop that needs to look intentional, not abrupt.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital E's final stroke aims right. Push up into the l's tall stem without lifting your pen.
The l drops from full height and curves into the e at the midline. Make this transition gradual.
The e's exit stroke rises into the n's first hump. Both letters sit at the same height.
The l is the anchor of this name. It should be the tallest lowercase letter.
The two e's need to match each other. Check them for consistency after writing.
Close the final a at the top with a small finishing tail.
