Maxwell is seven letters with the bold capital M, the uncommon x in the middle, and a double-l at the end. The x adds an unusual character to the name, and the w-e-l-l finish has a tall, elegant look. A distinctive name that stands out on the page.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital M finishes at the baseline heading right. Sweep into the a without pausing.
The x's main stroke ends near the baseline. From there, push into the w's first upstroke. Add the x's crossing stroke after finishing the name.
Both l's should be identical in height. Write them as one continuous up-down-up motion.
The cursive x needs its crossing stroke added after you finish writing. Treat it like crossing a t.
The double-l at the end is the visual anchor. Make both l's tall and even.
Break it into Max-well for practice. Each half has its own distinct character.
