Juliette in Japanese

Juliette is written ジュリエット in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Juliette would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

Our top pick is 寿里栄斗 (Jurieto). 寿 means “long life”, 里 means “hometown”, 栄 means “prosperity” and 斗 means “big dipper”. Other good options are 樹里英斗 (Jurieto) and 寿里栄灯 (Jurietou).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 寿里栄斗 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.

寿里栄斗 has 27 strokes in total (寿: 7, 里: 7, 栄: 9, 斗: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 寿里栄斗 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 “Juliette”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ジュリエット) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
