Questions about Sergej in Japanese

Our top pick is 世瑠芸 (Serugei). 世 means “world”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 芸 means “art”. Other good options are 聖琉芸 (Serugei) and 聖瑠芸 (Seirugei).
Is 世瑠芸 a real Japanese name?
Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 世瑠芸 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 世瑠芸?
世瑠芸 has 26 strokes in total (世: 5, 瑠: 14, 芸: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 世瑠芸 as a tattoo?
Each character in 世瑠芸 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 “Sergej”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (セルゲイ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
