Questions about Nici in Japanese
How do you write Nici in Japanese?
Nici is written ニシ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Nici would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.
What are the best kanji for Nici?
Our top pick is 新詩 (Nishi). 新 means “new” and 詩 means “poem”. Other good options are 新詞 (Nishi) and 新信 (Nishi).
Is 新詩 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 新詩 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Arashi rather than Nishi. As a spelling of Nici, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 新詩?
新詩 has 26 strokes in total (新: 13, 詩: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 新詩 as a tattoo?
Each character in 新詩 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 “Nici”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ニシ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
