Questions about Malek in Japanese

How do you write Malek in Japanese?

Malek is written マレック in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Malek 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 マレク (spelled out).

What are the best kanji for Malek?

Our top pick is 真礼久 (Mareku). 真 means “truth”, 礼 means “courtesy” and 久 means “everlasting”. Other good options are 茉礼空 (Mareku) and 茉玲久 (Mareku).

Is 真礼久 a real Japanese name?

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

真礼久 has 18 strokes in total (真: 10, 礼: 5, 久: 3). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 真礼久 as a tattoo?

Each character in 真礼久 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 “Malek”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (マレック) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
