HelpRe: Try your name in Japanese
in reply to a message by Vek
Ok, I see this is supposed to be just a fun little game, but how is it supposed to be your name in Japanese? I see now correspondance with the Japanese syllabic alphabet or with the way sounds are pronounced in Japanese, just some syllables randomly associated with letters.
I'd be Lushikatomikuarimika (wow, long!). Japanese people in my experience tend to pronounce my name Fu-rancesca.

Yeah, it's not really "in Japanese". My name in Japanese is pronounced "ku-ro-ee" and in katakana (the script) it kinda looks like "joi" in boxy robot letters.
I am interested in what my name would be based on meaning though! What's Japanese for "green shoot"?

Thank you - I was going to bring this up, but I wasn't happy with the response I typed up, and was too lazy this morning to go searching for a decent website. I took two semesters of Japanese in college, but that was almost 10 years ago (!!!) and I've forgotten much of it.
P.S. Did you know Fiammetta in Japanese is FI A N ME TTA? They use the Japanese double consonant for the T, but I'm a bit confused why they'd need to throw an "N" in there before "ME."

Yes I've taken some Japanese classes too, but have pretty much given up on it. I guess "Fianmetta" would be because there is a "n" letter, for the double "t" you'd need the little "tsu".
