Questions about Raissa in Japanese

How do you write Raissa in Japanese?

Raissa is written ライッサ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Raissa would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag. Depending on the origin of the name, it can also be written ライサ (as written in Japan) and レイサ (English).

Is 良衣紗 a real Japanese name?
