Questions about Scarlet in Japanese

How do you write Scarlet in Japanese?

Scarlet is written スカーレット in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Scarlet would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Scarlet?

Our top pick is 寿佳麗斗 (Sukareito). 寿 means “long life”, 佳 means “excellence”, 麗 means “elegance” and 斗 means “big dipper”. Other good options are 寿佳麗桐 (Sukareitou) and 寿佳玲斗 (Sukareto).

Is 寿佳麗斗 a real Japanese name?

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

寿佳麗斗 has 38 strokes in total (寿: 7, 佳: 8, 麗: 19, 斗: 4). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 寿佳麗斗 as a tattoo?

Each character in 寿佳麗斗 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 “Scarlet”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (スカーレット) 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.
