Questions about Bertrand in Japanese

How do you write Bertrand in Japanese?

Bertrand is written ベルトラン in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Bertrand would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag. Depending on the origin of the name, it can also be written バートランド (English).

What are the best kanji for Bertrand?

Our top pick is 平瑠虎 (Heirutora). 平 means “peace”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 虎 means “tiger”. Other good options are 平瑠斗藍 (Heirutoran) and 平瑠登良 (Heirutora).

Is 平瑠虎 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 平瑠虎 is a creative kanji spelling (called ateji), chosen for its sounds and meanings. Japanese readers will understand what each character means, and many will enjoy the idea behind it.

How many strokes is 平瑠虎?

平瑠虎 has 27 strokes in total (平: 5, 瑠: 14, 虎: 8). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 平瑠虎 as a tattoo?

Each character in 平瑠虎 has a positive meaning, so it is a reasonable choice. Keep in mind that Japanese people will read it as the meaning of the characters, not instantly as “Bertrand”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ベルトラン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
