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

Our top pick is 日寿 (Hisu). 日 means “sun” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 陽寿 (Hisu) and 灯寿 (Hisu).
Is 日寿 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 日寿 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Hinata rather than Hisu. As a spelling of Heath, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.

日寿 has 11 strokes in total (日: 4, 寿: 7). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.

Each character in 日寿 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 “Heath”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ヒース) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
