Is 路麗太 a real Japanese name?
Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 路麗太 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.

路麗太 has 36 strokes in total (路: 13, 麗: 19, 太: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 路麗太 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 “Lolita”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ロリータ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
