Questions about Bima in Japanese

How do you write Bima in Japanese?

Bima is written ビマ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Bima 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 ビーマ (English).

What are the best kanji for Bima?

Our top pick is 美舞 (Bima). 美 means “beauty” and 舞 means “dance”. Other good options are 美真 (Bima) and 美満 (Bima).

Is 美舞 a real Japanese name?

Partly. The characters 美舞 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Minobu and Mibu rather than Bima. As a spelling of Bima, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.

How many strokes is 美舞?

美舞 has 24 strokes in total (美: 9, 舞: 15). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 美舞 as a tattoo?

Each character in 美舞 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 “Bima”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ビマ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
