Questions about Goran in Japanese

How do you write Goran in Japanese?

Goran is written ゴラン in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Goran would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

What are the best kanji for Goran?

Our top pick is 悟藍 (Goran). 悟 means “enlightenment” and 藍 means “indigo”. Other good options are 護藍 (Goran) and 五藍 (Goran).

Is 悟藍 a real Japanese name?

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

悟藍 has 28 strokes in total (悟: 10, 藍: 18). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 悟藍 as a tattoo?

Each character in 悟藍 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 “Goran”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ゴラン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
