Questions about Ulrik in Japanese

How do you write Ulrik in Japanese?

Ulrik is written ウーリック in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Ulrik would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag. Depending on the origin of the name, it can also be written ウルリク (spelled out).

What are the best kanji for Ulrik?

Our top pick is 宇里玖 (Uriku). 宇 means “universe”, 里 means “hometown” and 玖 means “black jade”. Other good options are 羽理玖 (Uriku) and 羽里久 (Uriku).

Is 宇里玖 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 宇里玖 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 宇里玖?

宇里玖 has 20 strokes in total (宇: 6, 里: 7, 玖: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 宇里玖 as a tattoo?

Each character in 宇里玖 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 “Ulrik”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ウーリック) 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.
