Questions about Marguerite in Japanese

How do you write Marguerite in Japanese?

Marguerite is written マーゲリート in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Marguerite would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

Our top pick is 舞希里登 (Makerito). 舞 means “dance”, 希 means “hope”, 里 means “hometown” and 登 means “ascent”. Other good options are 舞希里桐 (Makeritou) and 真希里灯 (Makeritou).

Is 舞希里登 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 舞希里登 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 舞希里登?

舞希里登 has 41 strokes in total (舞: 15, 希: 7, 里: 7, 登: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 舞希里登 as a tattoo?

Each character in 舞希里登 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 “Marguerite”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (マーゲリート) 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.
