John is a classic four-letter name that writes quickly in cursive. The capital J swoops below the baseline and swings back up, and the h at the end gives the name a tall, solid finish. Simple connections throughout make this a reliable name to practice.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital J curves below the baseline and returns heading right. Catch the o on that upswing and keep it round.
The h's final hump leads directly into the n. Both letters share similar hump shapes, so keep them at the same height.
The capital J should have a smooth, generous curve below the baseline. No sharp points.
The o needs to close completely so it does not look like a u.
The h-n ending should look like a continuous wave of humps at the same height.
