What's included in the Bodhi worksheet

Letters to trace: 5; Capital B + 4 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #265; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

Tracing Bodhi is a step up from the basics — all 5 of its letters are different, and a handful of them ask for a steadier pencil than plain lines do. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. It starts with a capital “B”, which joins a straight stroke to a curve — draw the line first, then add the curve to it. The tall letters “d” and “h” reach the top guide line — a common slip is stopping them at the height of the small letters instead. Because Bodhi was the #265 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Bodhi tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Bodhi is formed:

B — One big line down, then back to the top for two bumps out to the right — the first stops at the middle, the second at the bottom.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.
d — Curve round like a c first, then a tall line up on its right side and straight back down.
h — A tall line down, then trace back up halfway and over the hump to the baseline.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.

Watch the skyline of Bodhi: “B”, “d” and “h” reach the top guide line, three tall letters out of 5. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Bodhi runs five letters, a length it shares with 502 of the 1,918 names on this site. On the 2025 boys' list it sits in the wide middle stretch, with 704 of the 965 boys' names on this site ranking behind it.

Bodhi was the #265 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. The worksheet itself is one page — US Letter, A4-friendly — ruled with classic three-line handwriting guides plus a descender line below.

Tips for tracing Bodhi

Split Bodhi down the middle: trace “Bod”, pause, then “hi” — two short chunks are easier to hold in mind than five letters at once.
The dot on “i” comes at the very end of Bodhi: trace every letter body, then go back and dot.
Say the letter heights out loud as a chant while tracing — “tall, small, tall, tall, small” — the size pattern of Bodhi sticks faster when it has words.
Close with a single unguided Bodhi on scrap paper. Tracing teaches the movement; writing it from memory makes it stick.

Customization options

Font style

Dotted letters are the classic preschool tracing outline; solid light-gray letters are the next step, for writing directly over the full letterform. The example row of Bodhi always prints in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

Small, medium, or large guide lines. Bodhi fits at every size — start large for first attempts and step down as pencil control improves.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Bodhi print: 1 to 12 under the example row. New tracers do better with fewer, larger lines; confident ones can fill a full twelve-line page.

How popular is the name Bodhi?

Is Bodhi an easy name for a child to learn to trace?

How should my child handle the dotted letters in Bodhi?

Bodhi contains “i”, which is finished with a floating dot. Teach the sequence "body first, dot last": trace the stroke down, then lift the pencil and place the dot. None of the letters in Bodhi drop below the baseline, so the dot is the only detail to remember.

What letter size works best for tracing Bodhi?

At 5 letters, Bodhi fits well at any letter size. Large is the friendliest starting point for ages 3–4; move to medium once the shapes are familiar.
