Questions about Burgi in Japanese

How do you write Burgi in Japanese?

Burgi is written ブルギ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Burgi 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 ビュルギ (as written in Japan).

What are the best kanji for Burgi?

Our top pick is 武瑠希 (Buruki). 武 means “martial”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 希 means “hope”. Other good options are 武瑠義 (Burugi) and 武琉暉 (Buruki).

Is 武瑠希 a real Japanese name?

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

武瑠希 has 29 strokes in total (武: 8, 瑠: 14, 希: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 武瑠希 as a tattoo?

Each character in 武瑠希 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 “Burgi”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ブルギ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
