Our top pick is 茉久士 (Makushi). 茉 means “jasmine”, 久 means “everlasting” and 士 means “warrior”. Other good options are 茉玖詩 (Makushi) and 満久志 (Makushi).

Is 茉久士 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 茉久士 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.

Each character in 茉久士 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 “Maxie”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (マクシー) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
