Your example is very comprehensible!

I didn't know Peter means "stone".
I think that 岩男 is very good:)

Yellow is　黄. Sorry I don't understand "then 世界".

Thank you YuriTokoro

最近の子供の名前はそういうの多いですよね:)
かっこいいなぁ～と思います:vsign:

sorry coz i'm still learning japanese hiragana and a little bit of kanji oni so i duno which kanji = yellow. Plus, i duno how yellow in hiragana called what so i tot that one you might understand so i just type in the chinese words. My japanese sensei only taught me the timing ( ex. kin yobi, moku yobi) those thing only so please forgive me ^^
my sir name is ( yellow )
my name is ( world ) i think it might be pronounce as " se kai "
so what name should it be ?
please help me out :D onegai shimasu !

I'm not quite sure what all the fuss is about here... sure some names are quite impossible to write in Kanji, but that's where you just have to get creative. Like for a tee sound you can use 茶 and stuff like that.

And with all due respect to younger people, some of their names are very hard to read as well (kanji wise).

You can always do a hybrid thing like ボブ三郎 or something like that.

I wouldn't think this is anything to get offended about... quite the contrary I think it's all in good fun. I think it's a nice gesture from the topic creator and maybe everyone pood all over it from the start.

How about "Clinton" (クリントン)? Or the short form "Clint" (クリント)? :)

There's actually kind of a weird coincidence with my name, "Dylan."
Dylan is a name of Welsh decent which has several loose translations such as "of the sea," or "son of the sea," etc.

There are some variations for Kanji with the name Dylan, and some of the ones I've seen are:

1: 海: Sea
2: 嵐: Storm (as the second kanji to make up Dylan, the other being 慈, mercy/merciful).

So apparently the actual origin of my name and a few potential kanji that can make up my name both deal with water.
