Is 永舞尊 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 永舞尊 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.

Each character in 永舞尊 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 “Emerson”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (エマーソン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
