Tatum is a friendly first name to trace: a capital “T” and 4 lowercase letters, nearly all of them the simple lines and curves children learn first. The tall letter “t” reaches the top guide line — a common slip is stopping it at the height of the small letters instead. Because Tatum was the #189 girls' name of 2025, a ready-made Tatum tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.
Stroke by stroke, the letters of Tatum:
- T — A big line straight down, then a bar across the very top. Both forms are a crossed line, but the capital wears its bar on top while the small t is crossed lower down, at the midline — swapping the two is a very common early mix-up.
- a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side.
- t — A tallish line down that curves gently at the bottom, crossed with a short bar at the midline rather than the top.
- u — A short line down, curve along the bottom, back up — then a small line down the right side to finish.
- m — A short line down, then up and over one hump, and up and over a second hump — two humps, evenly sized.
Two of Tatum's 5 letters stand full height on the guides — “T” and “t”. The rest stay between the midline and the baseline with nothing hanging below, which gives a finished row of Tatum an even, tidy silhouette.
Tatum runs five letters, a length it shares with 502 of the 1,918 names on this site. On the 2025 girls' list it sits in the wide middle stretch, with 765 of the 953 girls' names on this site ranking behind it.
Tatum was the #189 girls' 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 Tatum
- Tatum has no slanted strokes, no tails below the line, and no dots to remember — nothing needs isolating first, so have your child trace the whole name from the very first attempt.
- Chunk it as “Tat” + “um”: a short pause in the middle of Tatum keeps attention fresh through all five letters.
- Say the letter heights out loud as a chant while tracing — “tall, small, tall, small, small” — the size pattern of Tatum sticks faster when it has words.
- Close with a single unguided Tatum 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 Tatum in solid dark letters for reference.
Letter size
Pick from three letter sizes. With 5 letters, Tatum sits well at any of them, so let your child's control decide: large while strokes are new, smaller once they steady.
Number of practice lines
Set 1 to 12 practice lines below the example row. Fewer, larger lines for beginners; more, smaller lines for daily practice sheets.
