Questions about Claes in Japanese

How do you write Claes in Japanese?

Claes is written クラース in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Claes 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 クレイズ (English) and クレス (spelled out).

What are the best kanji for Claes?

Our top pick is 久良寿 (Kurasu). 久 means “everlasting”, 良 means “goodness” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 久楽澄 (Kurasu) and 玖良澄 (Kurasu).

Is 久良寿 a real Japanese name?

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

久良寿 has 17 strokes in total (久: 3, 良: 7, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 久良寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 久良寿 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 “Claes”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (クラース) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
