How to write Naomi in cursive
- Start with a capital N (curve forward, slant, overcurve, slant, undercurve). Start at the baseline. Curve forward to the topline and slant down to the baseline.
- Swing up into the a (downcurve, undercurve, slant, undercurve): a small oval closed at the midline, then a slant down and an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the o (downcurve, undercurve, checkstroke): a closed oval that ends with a checkstroke at the midline.
- From the checkstroke of the o, write the m (overcurve, slant, overcurve, slant, overcurve, slant, undercurve): three humps made with overcurves, all the same height.
- Swing up into the i (undercurve, slant, undercurve; dot): a short undercurve and slant, with the dot added after the word is finished.
- After the word, dot the i.
