Questions about Rama in Japanese

How do you write Rama in Japanese?

Rama is written ラマ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Rama 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 ラーマ (as written in Japan).

What are the best kanji for Rama?

Our top pick is 良満 (Rama). 良 means “goodness” and 満 means “fullness”. Other good options are 楽満 (Rama) and 良舞 (Rama).

Is 良満 a real Japanese name?

Partly. The characters 良満 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Yoshimitsu rather than Rama. As a spelling of Rama, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.

How many strokes is 良満?

良満 has 19 strokes in total (良: 7, 満: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 良満 as a tattoo?

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