Questions about Nelda in Japanese

Is 音瑠太 a real Japanese name?

Each character in 音瑠太 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 “Nelda”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ネルダ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
