Romina in Japanese

Romina is written ロミナ in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Romina 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 ロミーナ (English).

Our top pick is 路実七 (Romina). 路 means “path”, 実 means “fruit” and 七 means “seven”. Other good options are 路海南 (Romina) and 路望凪 (Romina).

Not as a traditional name. Japanese people write foreign names in katakana, so 路実七 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.

路実七 has 23 strokes in total (路: 13, 実: 8, 七: 2). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.

Each character in 路実七 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 “Romina”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (ロミナ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
