Nova is a compact, punchy name that writes quickly in cursive. The capital N has a strong zigzag shape, and the o-v-a ending flows naturally with rounded and angled letters alternating. Four letters, no tall stems or descenders to manage.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital N ends with a downstroke. Curve it right at the baseline into the o's round shape.
The v returns to the baseline heading right and sweeps directly into the a. No lift needed.
The capital N needs two clean downstrokes and a connecting diagonal. Practice it until it is sharp.
The o-v connection is smooth since the o's exit stroke feeds right into the v's upward angle.
Close the final a at the top and add a small tail to finish the name.
