This is read eda and is a phonetic translation to katakana. This is the standard way names are translated to Japanese. These symbols have no meaning so you don't need to worry about wrong or unintended meanings. Also Japanese is commonly written horizontally and vertically and both are perfectly correct. For absolutely correct name translations use katakana as shown above.

Poet shijin

If you want meaning then consider a translation of the name's meaning into kanji. Eda means "Poet" which in Japanese is shijin and is written:

If you want only the meaning then click on the design on the left to see all of the options. But be careful because when kanji is written by itself people will most probably read it as a word and not as a name.

One elegant solution is to include the standard katakana translation along with the meaning of the name in kanji. These designs correctly translate both aspects of the name and combine the beauty and range of kanji with the correctness of a standard translation. We had Master Takase create several such designs for us which we are very excited about. Scroll down to see these designs - and remember you can immediately access every design you order.

You can also create your own unique design by ordering Eda in katakana along with one of the many options for Poet (shijin). To learn to create your own unique design visit Japanese Tattoo Design Ideas.

NOTE: From the Icelandic meaning "poet" or "songwriter".
