## What is Japanese Name Generator?

Give your character a Japanese name that feels considered—not randomly assembled.

JP Name is built for anime OCs, novel and game characters, pen names, role-play, and Japanese-language learning. Choose a purpose and preferences, then compare name ideas with kanji, kana, romaji, meaning, pronunciation, cultural impression, strengths, considerations, and warnings when a reading may feel unusual.

CHECK A NAME FOR FREE
Name Detective lets you check any given name or full name for writing, possible readings, usage trends, kanji imagery, and name-pairing facts. Free checks are unlimited and use no credits. Pro adds a deeper AI interpretation grounded in the facts shown in your report.

EXPLORE REAL NAME DATA
Browse Japanese given-name trends from 1912–2025 and a sourced Top 2,000 surname catalog. Filter by gender and year, hear readings, and see the context behind each name.

LEARN AND SHARE
• Hear Japanese readings
• Practice animated kanji and kana stroke order
• Save favorites and task history
• Create shareable name cards in eight themes

No account is required. JP Name contains no ads or third-party tracking SDKs.

JP Name is for inspiration and cultural reference. It does not provide legal name-change, immigration, registry, or professional naming advice.
