What's included in the Maddison worksheet

Letters to trace: 8; Capital M + 7 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #438; Girls' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; Diagonal strokes in M

Maddison sits in the middle of the range — from the capital “M” on, most of its 8 letters are shapes a beginner already knows, and the rest are the ones worth slowing down for. The diagonal strokes in “M” are the trickiest part — slanted lines are usually the last strokes young writers control, so expect extra passes there. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. The double “d” is a nice rhythm builder: tracing the same letter twice in a row helps the shape stick. Because Maddison was the #438 girls' name of 2025, a ready-made Maddison tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Maddison is formed:

M — A big line down, then from the top: slant down to the baseline, slant back up, and one more big line down.
a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side.
d — Curve round like a c first, then a tall line up on its right side and straight back down. Maddison uses it twice.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.
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.

Watch the skyline of Maddison: “M” and “d” reach the top guide line, three tall letters out of 8. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Maddison is one of the long ones: just 206 of the 1,918 names on this site run eight letters or more. Its popularity is middle-of-the-list for 2025 girls' names — still ahead of 524 of the 953 here.

Maddison was the #438 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 Maddison

The slants in “M” deserve their own warm-up row — once those land cleanly, the rest of Maddison is familiar ground.
Maddison is 8 letters, so split early sessions in half: trace the first 4 letters one day and the rest the next, then put the whole name together.
Teach "body first, dot last" with “i” — finish the downstroke, lift, and only then place the dot.
Treat the repeated “d” as a bonus rep — tracing the same letter twice in a row is how a shape stops needing thought.
Give Maddison its height song: “tall, small, tall, tall, small, small, small, small”. Chanting the sizes while tracing keeps tall letters tall and small letters small.
Finish each session with one try writing Maddison on blank paper — tracing builds the motor pattern, writing from memory locks it in.

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 Maddison in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

Small, medium, or large guide lines. Because Maddison runs 8 letters, medium or small keeps the whole name on each line; use large for single-letter warm-ups.

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.
