Julianna in Japanese

Julianna is written ジュリアナ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Julianna would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.

Our top pick is 寿里安七 (Juriana). 寿 means “long life”, 里 means “hometown”, 安 means “peace” and 七 means “seven”. Other good options are 寿里明南 (Juriana) and 寿里朝凪 (Juriana).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 寿里安七 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.

寿里安七 has 22 strokes in total (寿: 7, 里: 7, 安: 6, 七: 2). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 寿里安七 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 “Julianna”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ジュリアナ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
