Is 生茂 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 生茂 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Ikumo rather than Imo. As a spelling of Eamon, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 生茂?
生茂 has 13 strokes in total (生: 5, 茂: 8). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.
Can I use 生茂 as a tattoo?
Each character in 生茂 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 “Eamon”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (イーモン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
