Questions about Iis in Japanese

How do you write Iis in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Iis?

Our top pick is 偉唯寿 (Iisu). 偉 means “greatness”, 唯 means “the only one” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 唯偉寿 (Iisu) and 偉生珠 (Iisu).

Is 偉唯寿 a real Japanese name?

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

偉唯寿 has 30 strokes in total (偉: 12, 唯: 11, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 偉唯寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 偉唯寿 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 “Iis”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (イイス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
