Ellie is compact and charming with a double-l in the center and a double-letter feel from the two repeated pairs. The capital E leads into the l's tall stems, and the ie ending finishes softly. Getting the double-l even is the main focus here.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital E ends with a rightward stroke at the midline. Push directly up into the first l from there.
Keep both l's identical in height and width. They should look like matching pillars.
The i connects to the e with a natural rightward stroke. Dot the i after finishing the name.
The double-l dominates this short name. If those two letters are not even, the whole name looks off.
The ie ending should be small and tidy next to the tall l's.
Since there are only five letters, take your time with each one. Quality over speed.
