Jonathan is eight letters with the swooping capital J and the th combination near the end. The o-n-a sequence in the middle is gentle curves throughout. The than ending is one of the most common letter groupings in English, so mastering it here pays off broadly.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital J drops below the baseline and curves back up. Meet the o on that upswing and close it fully.
The t connects to the h at the baseline. The h rises tall from that point. Cross the t after finishing the name.
The n's final hump exits into the a. Keep both letters at the midline height.
Break it into Jon-a-than for practice. The than ending deserves extra repetition.
Cross the t after writing all eight letters.
The o-n-a middle section is all smooth curves. Let your hand find a rhythm there.
