## What is JapaName?

Turn your name into beautiful Japanese Kanji — in seconds.

JapaName transforms your name into authentic Japanese Kanji, Hiragana, or Katakana, complete with real character meanings, stunning Japanese fonts, and share-ready art.

Ever wondered what your name looks like in Japanese? JapaName uses AI to find how your name is actually pronounced in Japan — not a letter-by-letter guess — then matches each sound to real Kanji characters, each carrying its own meaning like "dragon," "celebration," or "beauty."

HOW IT WORKS
Type your name in Roman letters
AI finds the authentic Japanese pronunciation (Michael → マイケル)
Choose sound-focused or meaning-focused Kanji matching
Compare multiple Kanji candidates and see what every character means
Style it with Japanese fonts & backgrounds — then share or save

• AI-powered pronunciation with multiple authentic readings
• Real meanings explained for every Kanji character
• 19 Japanese fonts: brush calligraphy, mincho, neon, retro pixel & more
• Gorgeous backgrounds: washi paper, red seal stamp, ink black
• Vertical or horizontal layout, polaroid-style photo frame
• Dark Mode (opt-in): edgier Kanji for a bolder look
• Save favorites & export high-resolution PNG images
• Perfect for tattoo ideas, social media profiles, gifts, and Japan trips

GO PREMIUM — one-time purchase, yours forever
