Questions about Wendell in Japanese

How do you write Wendell in Japanese?

Wendell is written ウェンデル in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Wendell would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Wendell?

Our top pick is 瑛輝 (Eteru). 瑛 means “crystal” and 輝 means “radiance”. Other good options are 永輝 (Eteru) and 縁輝 (Enteru).

Is 瑛輝 a real Japanese name?

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

瑛輝 has 27 strokes in total (瑛: 12, 輝: 15). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 瑛輝 as a tattoo?

Each character in 瑛輝 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 “Wendell”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ウェンデル) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
