Questions about Lars in Japanese

How do you write Lars in Japanese?

Lars is written ラルス in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Lars 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 ラーズ (English).

What are the best kanji for Lars?

Our top pick is 良瑠寿 (Rarusu). 良 means “goodness”, 瑠 means “lapis lazuli” and 寿 means “long life”. Other good options are 楽瑠澄 (Rarusu) and 良琉澄 (Rarusu).

Is 良瑠寿 a real Japanese name?

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

良瑠寿 has 28 strokes in total (良: 7, 瑠: 14, 寿: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Can I use 良瑠寿 as a tattoo?

Each character in 良瑠寿 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 “Lars”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ラルス) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
