Questions about Rodrigues in Japanese

How do you write Rodrigues in Japanese?

Rodrigues is written ロドリゲス in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Rodrigues 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 ロドリーゲス (English).

What are the best kanji for Rodrigues?

Our top pick is 路土里華寿 (Rodorigesu). 路 means “path”, 土 means “earth”, 里 means “hometown”, 華 means “splendor” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 呂土里華澄 (Rodorigesu) and 路土理華寿 (Rodorikesu).

Is 路土里華寿 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 路土里華寿 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 路土里華寿?

路土里華寿 has 40 strokes in total (路: 13, 土: 3, 里: 7, 華: 10, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 路土里華寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 路土里華寿 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 “Rodrigues”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ロドリゲス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
