Letters to trace: 6; Capital L + 5 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #431; Girls' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

There is real practice in London without it being daunting: it spells out with 4 different letters over 6 positions, mixing familiar shapes with one or two that reward a second pass. It starts with a capital “L” — straight strokes only, which makes it a forgiving first letter to land. The tall letter “d” reaches the top guide line — a common slip is stopping it at the height of the small letters instead. Because London was the #431 girls' name of 2025, a ready-made London tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

The letters of London, in the order they are written:

L — One big line down, then turn the corner and draw a bar along the bottom without lifting the pencil.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline. London uses it twice.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline. London uses it twice.
d — Curve round like a c first, then a tall line up on its right side and straight back down.

Two of London's 6 letters stand full height on the guides — “L” and “d”. The rest stay between the midline and the baseline with nothing hanging below, which gives a finished row of London an even, tidy silhouette.

London runs six letters, the single most common name length on this site (562 of the 1,918 names). Popularity-wise it lands in the broad middle of the 2025 girls' list, still ahead of 531 of the 953 girls' names here.

London was the #431 girls' 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 London

Split London down the middle: trace “Lon”, pause, then “don” — two short chunks are easier to hold in mind than six letters at once.
Say the letter heights out loud as a chant while tracing — “tall, small, small, tall, small, small” — the size pattern of London sticks faster when it has words.
Close with a single unguided London on scrap paper. Tracing teaches the movement; writing it from memory makes it stick.

Customization options

Font style

Two tracing styles: dotted outlines — the classic preschool form — or solid light-gray letters for writing directly over the full shape. Whichever you pick, the example row keeps London in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

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

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.
