What's included in the Grayson worksheet

Letters to trace: 7; Capital G + 6 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #51; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: challenging; Diagonal strokes in y

Expect Grayson to take more passes than most: from the capital “G” onward, its 7 letters include several shapes that sit at the harder end of what children print. The diagonal strokes in “y” are the trickiest part — slanted lines are usually the last strokes young writers control, so expect extra passes there. Watch the tail on “y”: it drops below the baseline onto the lower guide line. Because Grayson was the #51 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Grayson tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

Forming the letters of Grayson, one at a time:

G — Start like a capital C — one big open curve — then a short bar in across the middle, like a shelf for the curve to rest on.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.
a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side.
y — A short slant down to the baseline, met by a longer slant that keeps going below the line to hang its tail.
s — The same snake drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline.

Only the capital G reaches the top guide line in Grayson — every other letter keeps a low profile. One letter hangs a tail beneath the baseline, so the sheet's lower guide line sees real use on this name.

At seven letters, Grayson is on the long side — only 206 of the 1,918 names here run longer. Popularity puts it in the 2025 boys' top 100, ahead of 914 of this site's 965 boys' names.

Grayson was the #51 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. Each sheet prints as a single page on US Letter or A4, carrying three-line handwriting guides with a fourth descender line underneath.

Tips for tracing Grayson

The slants in “y” deserve their own warm-up row — once those land cleanly, the rest of Grayson is familiar ground.
At 7 letters, Grayson is a lot to take in one pass — cover the first 4 letters in one session and the remainder in the next before joining them up.
The letter “y” in Grayson hangs below the line on purpose: show your child the lower guide line, then let the tail land on it.
Give Grayson its height song: “tall, small, small, tail, small, small, small”. Chanting the sizes while tracing keeps tall letters tall and small letters small.
Finish each session with one try writing Grayson on blank paper — tracing builds the motor pattern, writing from memory locks it in.

Customization options

Font style

The dotted style breaks each letter of Grayson 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

Three guide-line heights. At 7 letters, Grayson is happiest on medium or small lines — the large size is better saved for warming up on one letter at a time.

Number of practice lines

The sheet holds 1 to 12 practice lines under the example row. Start low — three or four lines is plenty for a first session — and add more as sessions get longer.

Which letters in Grayson go below the line?
