Questions about Felipe in Japanese

How do you write Felipe in Japanese?

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

Our top pick is 兵理平 (Herihei). 兵 means “soldier”, 理 means “reason” and 平 means “peace”. Other good options are 平理兵 (Heirihe) and 兵里平 (Heirihei).

Is 兵理平 a real Japanese name?

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

兵理平 has 23 strokes in total (兵: 7, 理: 11, 平: 5). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 兵理平 as a tattoo?

Each character in 兵理平 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 “Felipe”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (フェリペ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
