Questions about Wallace in Japanese

How do you write Wallace in Japanese?

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

What are the best kanji for Wallace?

Our top pick is 穂礼寿 (Oresu). 穂 means “ear of rice”, 礼 means “courtesy” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 桜礼寿 (Ouresu) and 勇礼澄 (Oresu).

Is 穂礼寿 a real Japanese name?

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

穂礼寿 has 27 strokes in total (穂: 15, 礼: 5, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 穂礼寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 穂礼寿 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 “Wallace”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ウォレス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
