Questions about Solly in Japanese

How do you write Solly in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Solly?

Our top pick is 蒼里 (Souri). 蒼 means “deep blue” and 里 means “hometown”. Other good options are 奏里 (Souri) and 蘇里 (Sori).

Is 蒼里 a real Japanese name?

Partly. The characters 蒼里 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Aori rather than Souri. As a spelling of Solly, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.

How many strokes is 蒼里?

蒼里 has 20 strokes in total (蒼: 13, 里: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 蒼里 as a tattoo?

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