Questions about Loris in Japanese

How do you write Loris in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Loris?

Our top pick is 路里寿 (Rorisu). 路 means “path”, 里 means “hometown” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 良里寿 (Rourisu) and 路莉珠 (Rorisu).

Is 路里寿 a real Japanese name?

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

路里寿 has 27 strokes in total (路: 13, 里: 7, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 路里寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 路里寿 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 “Loris”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ロリス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
