Valencia in Japanese

Valencia is written バレンシア in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Valencia would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

Our top pick is 羽恋詩愛 (Barenshia). 羽 means “feather”, 恋 means “romance”, 詩 means “poem” and 愛 means “love”. Other good options are 羽恋紫亜 (Barenshia) and 羽礼詩愛 (Bareshia).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 羽恋詩愛 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.

羽恋詩愛 has 42 strokes in total (羽: 6, 恋: 10, 詩: 13, 愛: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 羽恋詩愛 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 “Valencia”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (バレンシア) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
