Is 礼風 a real Japanese name?
Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 礼風 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 礼風?
礼風 has 14 strokes in total (礼: 5, 風: 9). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.
Can I use 礼風 as a tattoo?
Each character in 礼風 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 “Lech”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (レフ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
