Questions about Claus in Japanese

How do you write Claus in Japanese?

Claus is written クラウス in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Claus 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 クローズ (English).

What are the best kanji for Claus?

Our top pick is 久良羽寿 (Kurausu). 久 means “everlasting”, 良 means “goodness”, 羽 means “feather” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 久良宇澄 (Kurausu) and 久良佑透 (Kurausu).

Is 久良羽寿 a real Japanese name?

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 久良羽寿 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 久良羽寿?

久良羽寿 has 23 strokes in total (久: 3, 良: 7, 羽: 6, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 久良羽寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 久良羽寿 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 “Claus”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (クラウス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
