Questions about Marjorie in Japanese

How do you write Marjorie in Japanese?

Marjorie is written マージョリー in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Marjorie would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Marjorie?

Our top pick is 茉城麗 (Majouri). 茉 means “jasmine”, 城 means “castle” and 麗 means “elegance”. Other good options are 真城梨 (Majouri) and 満城理 (Majouri).

Is 茉城麗 a real Japanese name?

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

茉城麗 has 36 strokes in total (茉: 8, 城: 9, 麗: 19). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 茉城麗 as a tattoo?

Each character in 茉城麗 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 “Marjorie”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (マージョリー) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
