Dimitri is written ディミートリー in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Dimitri 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 ディミトリ (as written in Japan).

Is 出実鳥 a real Japanese name?

How many strokes is 出実鳥?

出実鳥 has 24 strokes in total (出: 5, 実: 8, 鳥: 11). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 出実鳥 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 “Dimitri”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ディミートリー) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
