SSA popularity, 2025: #883; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

There is real practice in Jericho without it being daunting: all 7 of its letters are different, mixing familiar shapes with one or two that reward a second pass. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. It starts with a capital “J”, which joins a straight stroke to a curve — draw the line first, then add the curve to it. The tall letter “h” reaches the top guide line — a common slip is stopping it at the height of the small letters instead. Because Jericho was the #883 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Jericho tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

Stroke by stroke, the letters of Jericho:

J — A big line down that curves to the left at the bottom, like a hook catching the baseline.
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.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.
c — The same single open curve as the capital, drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.
h — A tall line down, then trace back up halfway and over the hump to the baseline.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.

Two of Jericho's 7 letters stand full height on the guides — “J” and “h”. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

At seven letters, Jericho is on the long side — only 206 of the 1,918 names here run longer. It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 boys' list yet still ahead of 103 of the 965 boys' names.

Jericho was the #883 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 Jericho

Break Jericho into two sittings: 4 letters now, the rest later — 7 letters at once is where early tracers tire and shapes slump.
The dot on “i” comes at the very end of Jericho: trace every letter body, then go back and dot.
Call out “tall, small, small, small, small, tall, small” as the pencil moves — naming each letter's height is the quickest fix for uneven sizing in Jericho.
Finish each session with one try writing Jericho on blank paper — tracing builds the motor pattern, writing from memory locks it in.

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 Jericho always prints in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

Pick from three letter sizes. A longer name like Jericho keeps all 7 letters on one line at medium or small; on large, use the lines for a few letters at a time instead.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Jericho 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.

Frequently asked questions

How many letters are in the name Jericho?

Jericho has 7 letters: a capital J followed by 6 lowercase letters. Each practice line on this worksheet shows all 7 letters on classic three-line handwriting guides.

How popular is the name Jericho?

Jericho was the #883 boys' name in the United States for 2025, according to the Social Security Administration's national baby-names data. That popularity is exactly why a ready-made Jericho tracing sheet is useful: many classrooms have a Jericho learning to write it.

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

How should my child handle the dotted letters in Jericho?

Jericho 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 Jericho drop below the baseline, so the dot is the only detail to remember.

What letter size works best for tracing Jericho?

Jericho is a longer name — 7 letters per line — so the medium or small letter size keeps the whole name comfortably on each guide line. Save the large size for practicing a few letters at a time.
