Juani in Japanese

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

Our top pick is 風安新 (Fuani). 風 means “wind”, 安 means “peace” and 新 means “new”. Other good options are 富明新 (Fuani) and 歩朝新 (Fuani).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 風安新 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.

風安新 has 28 strokes in total (風: 9, 安: 6, 新: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 風安新 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 “Juani”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (フアニ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
