Questions about Peggy in Japanese

How do you write Peggy in Japanese?

Peggy is written ペギー in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Peggy would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Peggy?

Our top pick is 平希 (Heiki). 平 means “peace” and 希 means “hope”. Other good options are 平貴 (Heiki) and 平輝 (Heiki).

Is 平希 a real Japanese name?

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

平希 has 12 strokes in total (平: 5, 希: 7). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.

Can I use 平希 as a tattoo?

Each character in 平希 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 “Peggy”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ペギー) 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.
