Questions about Giovanni in Japanese
How do you write Giovanni in Japanese?
Giovanni is written ジョバンニ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Giovanni 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 ジョヴァンニ.

Is 恕葉仁 a real Japanese name?
Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 恕葉仁 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 恕葉仁?
恕葉仁 has 26 strokes in total (恕: 10, 葉: 12, 仁: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 恕葉仁 as a tattoo?
Each character in 恕葉仁 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 “Giovanni”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ジョバンニ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
