Wesley starts with the wide capital W and has the s-l connection in the middle that forces a jump from a short letter to a tall one. The e-y ending drops below the baseline with the y's tail. Six letters with a nice mix of heights and shapes.

These letter pairs need extra attention. Here's how to connect them smoothly.
The capital W finishes heading right at the baseline. Curve up into the e from that exit point.
The s curves to the right, then you push upward into the l's tall stem. That height jump needs commitment.
The e opens to the right into the y's first downstroke. Let the y's tail swing below the baseline.
The capital W is wide and takes space. Give it room at the start.
The sl connection is the hardest part. Practice the short-to-tall transition.
The y's descender at the end should curve left, not drop straight down.
