Questions about Carroll in Japanese

How do you write Carroll in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Carroll?

Our top pick is 賀路琉 (Karoru). 賀 means “celebration”, 路 means “path” and 琉 means “lapis lazuli”. Other good options are 夏路瑠 (Karoru) and 賀呂瑠 (Karoru).

Is 賀路琉 a real Japanese name?

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

賀路琉 has 36 strokes in total (賀: 12, 路: 13, 琉: 11). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 賀路琉 as a tattoo?

Each character in 賀路琉 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 “Carroll”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (キャロル) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
