If you are talking about the names in the smiles, the best way would be to use a program that has word art such as MS Word. Another option is Envelope distortion in Inkscape, but that distorts the letters quite a bit.

If you have inkscape this is rather simple,
Draw or get the smile face
Type a name
go to path, object to path
place where you want the smile to be inside the teeth section
ungroup
select a single letter
shift and select the smile at same time.
goto path, select diffirence
and then continue through the name.
