Questions about Raj in Japanese

How do you write Raj in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Raj?

Our top pick is 良慈 (Raji). 良 means “goodness” and 慈 means “compassion”. Other good options are 良路 (Raji) and 楽慈 (Raji).

Is 良慈 a real Japanese name?

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

良慈 has 20 strokes in total (良: 7, 慈: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 良慈 as a tattoo?

Each character in 良慈 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 “Raj”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ラジ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
