Questions about Roma in Japanese

How do you write Roma in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Roma?

Our top pick is 路満 (Roma). 路 means “path” and 満 means “fullness”. Other good options are 路舞 (Roma) and 路真 (Roma).

Is 路満 a real Japanese name?

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

路満 has 25 strokes in total (路: 13, 満: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 路満 as a tattoo?

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

Planning a tattoo or a print? Read the kanji tattoo checklist, and check the kanji in the name tool. Not sure which script to use? See katakana or kanji.
