Questions about Borja in Japanese

How do you write Borja in Japanese?

Borja is written ボルハ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Borja would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag. Depending on the origin of the name, it can also be written ボーヤ (English).

What are the best kanji for Borja?

Our top pick is 慕瑠葉 (Boruha). 慕 means “devotion”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 葉 means “leaf”. Other good options are 菩瑠羽 (Boruha) and 牡瑠晴 (Boruha).

Is 慕瑠葉 a real Japanese name?

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

慕瑠葉 has 40 strokes in total (慕: 14, 瑠: 14, 葉: 12). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 慕瑠葉 as a tattoo?

Each character in 慕瑠葉 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 “Borja”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ボルハ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
