Questions about Easter in Japanese

How do you write Easter in Japanese?

Easter is written イースター in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Easter would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Easter?

Our top pick is 唯寿太 (Isuta). 唯 means “the only one”, 寿 means “long life” and 太 means “bold”. Other good options are 衣寿田 (Isuta) and 偉日太 (Isuta).

Is 唯寿太 a real Japanese name?

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

唯寿太 has 22 strokes in total (唯: 11, 寿: 7, 太: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 唯寿太 as a tattoo?

Each character in 唯寿太 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 “Easter”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (イースター) 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.
