Questions about Susana in Japanese

Is 日咲南 a real Japanese name?

Each character in 日咲南 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 “Susana”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (スサナ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
