Our top pick is 愛満 (Ama). 愛 means “love” and 満 means “fullness”. Other good options are 愛真 (Ama) and 愛茉 (Ama).

Partly. The characters 愛満 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Aimi and Narumi rather than Ama. As a spelling of Erma, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 愛満?
愛満 has 25 strokes in total (愛: 13, 満: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 愛満 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 “Erma”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (アーマ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
