Two names in one ambigram generator

Personally I like the way the ‘e’ is done, but the other letters leave much to be desired. However, if you look closely to the first letter of the ambinit version, this is absolutely something that we can use, but instead of putting just the letter ‘d’ into the ‘m’, why not shift the location of the ‘d’ to the first leg of the ‘m’ and incorporate the ‘r’ into the third leg? So we go back to the paper and start experimenting. We found a few solutions where ‘dr’ looks like an upside down ‘m’. Now we pick one that fits best with the theme that we want. Be careful here, as this will dictate the style of the rest of the ambigram. The next step is to find a good solution for the remaining two letters. Fortunately, ‘e’ and ‘a’ are very much alike when flipped, so this will not be too hard.

The biggest challenge now will be to follow the style. You probably already tried this, but in this step we will combine the two ambigram pairs of ‘dr/m’ and ‘e/a’ into the complete word. This is also the point to evaluate the solution and see if you are happy with how it looks. Make sure to keep a persistent size and spacing during this step. A good way to do this is to draw out half the word and then trace it both rightside up and upside down. This guarantees that you will have a better symmetry in the final product.
