Want to see your name in Japanese?

[ZTC]

Found this while locking threads at another forums, it translates your name (Last then first) to Japanese and also provides the meaning (though, as it says, some of it is rough translation)

Well, I'm not sure how accurate this is and everything, but...

for Jennifer Rebecca Hart, I got:
遠藤 Endoh (distant wisteria) 美晴 Miharu (beautiful clear sky)

For Robert Michael Hart, I got:
黒川 Kurokawa (black river) 雄大 Masahiro (big hero)

Without middle names, I got the same result for "Jennifer Hart," but "Robert Hart" gave me:
黒川 Kurokawa (black river) 駿 Shun (fast person)

Now, as english meanings go, Jennifer I'm not sure of- it's a derivative of Gueneviere (<mispelled) though. Rebecca comes from Rebekah and supposedly refers to a noose somehow. Hart is a type of English deer, or so I've been told by my parents.

Robert, I'm not sure of- it's just supposed to be a popular name for boys, though I think it may refer to "hero" in some way. Michael I don't know, but I think it's also biblical in origin.

That's a nice name I get for female (which I consider more real in this case anyway) though ^.^ I should use it somewhere for something.

秋本 Akimoto (autumn book) 一真 Kazuma (one reality)

[Rainman]

Doesn't look like it's very accurate because I got nothing close to the meaning of my first name. This topic also reminded me that I need to install my Japanese language character set.

[lord_jamitossi]

藤原 Fujiwara (wisteria fields) 雄大 Masahiro (big hero)

If these are real names, the pretty much everyone in Japan must have almost identical names.
Any updates on what Wisteria Fields means, Hellebeest?

[elise]

elise
川添 Kawazoe (riverside) ??? Michiko (beautiful wise child)

山田 Yamada (mountain field) 雄大 Masahiro (big hero)

[Eckels]

I'll bet anything that all those symbols actually translate to "stupid american"

[Lilith]

Lol, you can't translate a name like that. It's phonetic :(

[Prrkitty]

My real name:
猿渡 Saruwatari (monkey on a crossing bridge) 天音 Amane (sound of heaven)

ok... Monkey on a crossing bridge yelling for heaven? <giggle>

[Mitsukara]

Yeah, these seem a bit too repetitive and the symbols don't match up to the syllables in the romanji. I think it's bogus :( Interesting though.

Wisteria is a kind of plant- a bush with flowers IIRC (though I could be totally wrong). I think it grows in the US, not sure about Japan. Something you or I could look up pretty easily though, should one bother to do so. I didn't, LOL. I probably will later sometime long after posting this.

[ShadowTiger]

しゃどちげる is the phonetic for my name, けいえいとら is the string of words representing it.

God bless JWPCe, good sirs and ma'ams.

[moocow]

Augh, you guys are lazy.

Wisteria:

http://www.humeseeds.com/wisteria.jpg


Wisteria is a genus of about ten species of woody climbing vines native to the eastern United States and the East Asian states of China, Korea, and Japan. The vines climb by twining their stems either clockwise or counter-clockwise round any available support. They can climb as high as 20m above ground and spread at 10m laterally.

Any updates on what Wisteria Fields means, Hellebeest?

A few minutes after I did the name Hepner Connor in the generator it gave me a different one this time

長谷川 Hasegawa (long valley river) 弓美 Yumi (beautiful bow, as in bow and arrow)

Deffinetly a fake.

[mikeron]

Lol, you can't translate a name like that. It's phonetic :(If you tell a Japanese person your name, this is what will come up in their subconscious, but without all the cursing, gore, and religious references.
