Questions about Justice in Japanese

How do you write Justice in Japanese?

Justice is written ジャスティス in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Justice 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 ジュスタイス (spelled out).

What are the best kanji for Justice?

Our top pick is 路寿天日 (Jisutesu). 路 means “path”, 寿 means “long life”, 天 means “heaven” and 日 means “sun”. Other good options are 慈寿天珠 (Jisutesu) and 路日天寿 (Jisutesu).

Is 路寿天日 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 路寿天日 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 路寿天日?

路寿天日 has 28 strokes in total (路: 13, 寿: 7, 天: 4, 日: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 路寿天日 as a tattoo?

Each character in 路寿天日 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 “Justice”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ジャスティス) 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.
