Regula in Japanese

Regula is written レグラ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Regula 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 レグーラ (English).

Our top pick is 礼宮良 (Regura). 礼 means “courtesy”, 宮 means “shrine” and 良 means “goodness”. Other good options are 礼求楽 (Regura) and 怜宮楽 (Regura).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 礼宮良 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.

礼宮良 has 22 strokes in total (礼: 5, 宮: 10, 良: 7). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 礼宮良 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 “Regula”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (レグラ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
