Questions about Ratih in Japanese
How do you write Ratih in Japanese?
Ratih is written ラティ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Ratih would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.
What are the best kanji for Ratih?
Our top pick is 良照 (Rate). 良 means “goodness” and 照 means “shine”. Other good options are 楽照 (Rate) and 羅照 (Rate).
Is 良照 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 良照 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Yoshiteru rather than Rate. As a spelling of Ratih, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 良照?
良照 has 20 strokes in total (良: 7, 照: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 良照 as a tattoo?
Each character in 良照 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 “Ratih”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ラティ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
