Questions about Corrin in Japanese

How do you write Corrin in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Corrin?

Our top pick is 湖琳 (Korin). 湖 means “lake” and 琳 means “jade”. Other good options are 湖里 (Kori) and 湖鈴 (Korin).

Is 湖琳 a real Japanese name?

Yes. 湖琳 is also found in Japan as a girl’s name, read Korin, so it looks natural to Japanese readers. For Corrin, it works as both a real-looking Japanese name and a kanji spelling of your own name.

How many strokes is 湖琳?

湖琳 has 24 strokes in total (湖: 12, 琳: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 湖琳 as a tattoo?

Each character in 湖琳 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 “Corrin”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (コリン) 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.
