Questions about Rekha in Japanese

How do you write Rekha in Japanese?

Rekha is written レカ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Rekha 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 レクハ (spelled out).

What are the best kanji for Rekha?

Our top pick is 礼佳 (Reka). 礼 means “courtesy” and 佳 means “excellence”. Other good options are 礼香 (Reka) and 玲佳 (Reka).

Is 礼佳 a real Japanese name?

Partly. The characters 礼佳 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Ayaka and Raika rather than Reka. As a spelling of Rekha, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.

How many strokes is 礼佳?

礼佳 has 13 strokes in total (礼: 5, 佳: 8). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.

Can I use 礼佳 as a tattoo?

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