What's included in the Sebastian worksheet

Letters to trace: 9; Capital S + 8 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #16; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

Tracing Sebastian is a step up from the basics — it spells out with 7 different letters over 9 positions, and a handful of them ask for a steadier pencil than plain lines do. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. It starts with a capital “S”, one rounded stroke: begin at the top and keep the curve moving rather than lifting partway. The tall letters “b” and “t” reach the top guide line — a common slip is stopping them at the height of the small letters instead. Because Sebastian was the #16 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Sebastian tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

Forming the letters of Sebastian, one at a time:

S — One snaking curve: start near the top right, swing up and over to the left, cut back through the middle, and finish curling to the left at the bottom. Lowercase s is a smaller capital S, and both change direction twice in one stroke — which is why s is famously the curve children master last.
e — A short bar across the middle, then curve up, over, and round like a c underneath it.
b — A tall line down first, then up and round for one tummy on the right at the bottom.
a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side. Sebastian uses it twice.
s — The same snake drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.
t — A tallish line down that curves gently at the bottom, crossed with a short bar at the midline rather than the top.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline.

The tall strokes in Sebastian come from “S”, “b” and “t” — three of its 9 letters reach the top guide line. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Sebastian is one of the long ones: just 65 of the 1,918 names on this site run nine letters or more. It also cracks the top 100 of the 2025 boys' list — 949 of the 965 boys' names here rank behind it.

Sebastian was the #16 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. Every worksheet is a single US Letter page (prints on A4 too) with three-line handwriting guides and a descender line.

Tips for tracing Sebastian

Sebastian is 9 letters, so split early sessions in half: trace the first 5 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.
End every session the same way: one Sebastian on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

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 Sebastian always prints in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

Small, medium, or large guide lines. Because Sebastian runs 9 letters, medium or small keeps the whole name on each line; use large for single-letter warm-ups.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Sebastian 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.
