Questions about Bethel in Japanese

How do you write Bethel in Japanese?

Bethel is written ベセル in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Bethel would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Bethel?

Our top pick is 平世琉 (Heiseru). 平 means “peace”, 世 means “world” and 琉 means “lapis lazuli”. Other good options are 平星琉 (Heiseiru) and 平聖瑠 (Heiseru).

Is 平世琉 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 平世琉 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 平世琉?

平世琉 has 21 strokes in total (平: 5, 世: 5, 琉: 11). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 平世琉 as a tattoo?

Each character in 平世琉 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 “Bethel”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ベセル) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.

Planning a tattoo or a print? Read the kanji tattoo checklist, and check the kanji in the name tool. Not sure which script to use? See katakana or kanji.
