Basicallly speaking, you can just find a suitable Font and print it to the
size you need. I don't know what fonts Linda used for her examples.

Bob, you didn't say if you wanted the name to stand or mount it on a base? I have made several free standing, from 3/4 in. Oak. I just have the person I'm making it for, sign their name with a magic marker & make adjustments to the actual cut-out pattern. Some I have included a base in the name for some of them & it is all one piece. Here is an example of one.
When a blade slips out, the tendency is to tighten it more. Make sure you haven't over-tightened the clamp forcing the sides apart. Most OEM clamps are made from soft aluminum so once it starts they will continue spreading and it will be near-impossible to keep the blades in place.
