Samantha is a long name with eight letters that has a pleasant rhythm once you find it. The m creates a wide wave early on, the n-t pair in the second half needs a cross stroke remembered, and the two a's should look consistent. The capital S starts things off with a smooth curve.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital S ends with a small rightward curve at the baseline. Rise into the a from there.
The a's exit stroke feeds right into the m's first hump. Keep the transition fluid.
The n's final downstroke curves right into the t. Cross the t after finishing the whole name.
Break it into sections: Sam-an-tha. Each chunk has its own flow.
Both a's need to look the same. Consistent letter shapes across a long name are what make it look professional.
Cross the t last. It is the only stroke you need to go back for.
