What's included in the Gunner worksheet

Letters to trace: 6; Capital G + 5 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #506; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

Gunner sits in the middle of the range — from the capital “G” on, most of its 6 letters are shapes a beginner already knows, and the rest are the ones worth slowing down for. The double “n” is a nice rhythm builder: tracing the same letter twice in a row helps the shape stick. Because Gunner was the #506 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Gunner tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Gunner is formed:

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.
u — A short line down, curve along the bottom, back up — then a small line down the right side to finish.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline. Gunner uses it twice.
e — A short bar across the middle, then curve up, over, and round like a c underneath it.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.

Only the capital G reaches the top guide line in Gunner — every other letter keeps a low profile. The rest stay between the midline and the baseline with nothing hanging below, which gives a finished row of Gunner an even, tidy silhouette.

Gunner runs six letters, the single most common name length on this site (562 of the 1,918 names). It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 boys' list yet still ahead of 470 of the 965 boys' names.

Gunner was the #506 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 Gunner

Split Gunner down the middle: trace “Gun”, pause, then “ner” — two short chunks are easier to hold in mind than six letters at once.
Use the double “n” to build rhythm — say the letter aloud twice while tracing the pair.
Give Gunner its height song: “tall, small, small, small, small, small”. Chanting the sizes while tracing keeps tall letters tall and small letters small.
Finish each session with one try writing Gunner 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 Gunner 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

The size option changes the guide-line height. Gunner fits at every setting; the large lines are the friendliest starting point, and stepping down makes a natural next milestone.

Number of practice lines

Anywhere from 1 to 12 lines fits below the example row. A first session usually wants a few big lines; a daily practice sheet wants many smaller ones.
