🎮 Why Turn Your Name into Japanese?

🈂️ Understanding the Three Japanese Scripts

To write your name in Japanese, you’ll need to know about the three scripts used in Japanese writing:

1. Hiragana (ひらがな)

• Used mainly for native Japanese words and grammar.
• Soft and flowing. Think of it as the “default” script.

2. Katakana (カタカナ)

• Used for foreign words, names, and sounds.
• Your English name is usually converted into Katakana.

3. Kanji (漢字)

• Chinese-origin characters with deep meanings.
• Can be used creatively for names (like combining characters that mean “fire” 🔥 or “dragon” 🐉).

💻 How to Convert Your Name into Japanese?

You can either:

1. Use phonetics: Convert your name sound by sound using Katakana.
2. Add meaning: Choose Kanji characters based on what you want your name to represent.

But don’t worry — you don’t need to know Japanese. I made a tool that does it for you.

💡 Tips for Creating Japanese Gamer Tags

• Use Katakana if you’re converting your English name directly
• Use Kanji if you want to give your name a deeper meaning
• Mix English + Japanese for hybrid names like:
  • “NeoKami” (New + God)
  • “Ghost風” (Ghost + Wind)
  • “AkumaX” (Devil X)
