What's included in the Amiri worksheet

Letters to trace: 5; Capital A + 4 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #604; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; Diagonal strokes in A

There is real practice in Amiri without it being daunting: it spells out with 4 different letters over 5 positions, mixing familiar shapes with one or two that reward a second pass. The diagonal strokes in “A” are the trickiest part — slanted lines are usually the last strokes young writers control, so expect extra passes there. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. Because Amiri was the #604 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Amiri tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

Forming the letters of Amiri, one at a time:

A — Two slanted lines that lean into each other from a point at the top, then a bar across the middle to join them.
m — A short line down, then up and over one hump, and up and over a second hump — two humps, evenly sized.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last. Amiri uses it twice.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.

After the full-height capital A, nothing in Amiri climbs to the top guide line again. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Amiri runs five letters, a length it shares with 502 of the 1,918 names on this site. It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 boys' list yet still ahead of 376 of the 965 boys' names.

Amiri was the #604 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. One page is all it takes: three-line handwriting guides with a descender line below them, sized for US Letter and printing cleanly on A4.

Tips for tracing Amiri

Warm up on the slanted strokes in “A” before the full name — diagonals are the lines young writers master last, and five lone tries first make the whole of Amiri feel easier.
Chunk it as “Ami” + “ri”: a short pause in the middle of Amiri keeps attention fresh through all five letters.
The dot on “i” comes at the very end of Amiri: trace every letter body, then go back and dot.
Say the letter heights out loud as a chant while tracing — “tall, small, small, small, small” — the size pattern of Amiri sticks faster when it has words.
End every session the same way: one Amiri on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

Customization options

Font style

The dotted style breaks each letter of Amiri into a traceable outline; the solid light-gray style shows the whole letterform to write over. Most families start dotted and move to gray as pencil control improves — the dark example row stays either way.

Letter size

Pick from three letter sizes. With 5 letters, Amiri sits well at any of them, so let your child's control decide: large while strokes are new, smaller once they steady.

Number of practice lines

Set 1 to 12 practice lines below the example row. Fewer, larger lines for beginners; more, smaller lines for daily practice sheets.
