Questions about Eder in Japanese
How do you write Eder in Japanese?
Eder is written エデル in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Eder 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 エーダー (as written in Japan) and エダー (English).

Our top pick is 英輝 (Eteru). 英 means “brilliance” and 輝 means “radiance”. Other good options are 栄輝 (Eteru) and 英暉 (Eteru).
Is 英輝 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 英輝 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Hideki rather than Eteru. As a spelling of Eder, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 英輝?
英輝 has 23 strokes in total (英: 8, 輝: 15). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 英輝 as a tattoo?
Each character in 英輝 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 “Eder”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (エデル) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
