Do you mean "kanji", the Chinese characters? If so, no. We have created the katakana so that we can write you guys' names. Now, some people may be responding "Oh yes, they can be written in kanji." I assure you that none of them will be fluent Japanese-speakers.

I

Should it not look like this?


The second one is NOT good. When we write vertically, we write the elongation bar vertically as well.
