世羽 has 11 strokes in total (世: 5, 羽: 6). That is quite simple to write by hand, even for beginners.

Each character in 世羽 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 “Seba”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (セバ) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
