Questions about Jules in Japanese

How do you write Jules in Japanese?

Jules is written ジュールズ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Jules would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Jules?

Our top pick is 樹瑠都 (Juruzu). 樹 means “tree”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 都 means “capital”. Other good options are 樹瑠澄 (Jurusu) and 寿瑠鶴 (Juruzu).

Is 樹瑠都 a real Japanese name?

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

樹瑠都 has 41 strokes in total (樹: 16, 瑠: 14, 都: 11). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 樹瑠都 as a tattoo?

Each character in 樹瑠都 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 “Jules”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ジュールズ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.

Planning a tattoo or a print? Read the kanji tattoo checklist, and check the kanji in the name tool. Not sure which script to use? See katakana or kanji.
