How do you write Ulrik in Japanese?

Ulrik is written ウーリック in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Ulrik 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 ウルリク (spelled out).

Is 羽里久 a real Japanese name?
