Japanese symbol meaning help
My name is Kaleigh. I looked up what it would look like and mean in Japanese.
I was looking and Kanji, version 1 from this site What is my name in Japanese: Kaleigh I just wanted to make sure this is legit, i was thinking of getting it tattooed and i don't want to if it's not the right meanings of my name. Any help is appreciated!:) |
This one would better among those samples.
However, I do not recommend you to make tattoe on yourself because you might find much more better Kanji for your name. This site seems to have very limitted kanji symbols. They have only three kind of kanji for "LEIGH". There can be more kanjis for "LEI/REI" like as 怜,令,零,鈴,伶 or 令. And moreover, 香麗 could be another candidate. |

She wouldn't have Kanji for her name @ all. it would be in Katakana >.< |
I was thinking the same thing as you Yuusuke.
I believe your name would be katakana, and would be: カレイ Kaleigh Maybe... It depends on how you pronounce your name :) |

And, Foreign names CAN be done in Kanji as its the readings of the kanji that can form it. This can be tricky though as not everyones name can be done.. Also, some kanji have many readings so it may be difficult to guess how your name is pronounced if its written in kanji. |
Kaleigh is not a Japanese name, so the only option is writing it in katakana, which begs the question, why?
|
the best way to get your name in kanji would probably be this..
1. Find out the meaning of your name 2. Find the Japanese name that has the same meaning.. 3. Bam, you have your japanese kanji name.. |

Wasn't it better when 万葉仮名 was still around? So we could have our names in Kanji :) (I doubt so many people would have wanted to learn Japanese tho, by the little I know it was a real mess for non native).

well i wanted to get my name tattooed in some language, and from that site, the kanji version meaning of my name was brilliance and love, and i really liked that, which is why i wanted to tattoo it. but if that's not the right meaning, or right pronounciation, i wouldn't want to tattoo it. so, thank you :)

Bah, nowadays a tattoo is really worth crap. I had 1 for a reason and a meaning...now it is all coz of fashion and look cool. People, I really wish that some of these kids end up tattoing some pretty bad s**t in foreigner characters and get laughed at for it.
