Nancy Japanese Tattoo and Kanji Art
by Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase

Nancy and non-Japanese names in general are properly translated to Japanese using katakana. Translations to katakana are phonetic and so the pronunciation, not the spelling, is important.

Katakana symbols, just like English letters, have no meaning. So you don't have to worry about the name translations having any bad or unintended interpretations. And while my art is original, the translations we use are all standard and well documented. We even provide completely independent references so you can easily confirm the Japanese translation for yourself. We want you to be as happy with the art as you are with our translations!
