Default Your username in Japanese

Hi.

I have learned the bare basics in Japanese language a long time ago, and I still remember how to use Katakana. Then, I just got this idea.

You can post here to request your username to be written in Japanese Katakana, with its Romaji transcript. By doing so, you'll discover how a Japanese person would write and read your username!

For example, I'll do it with mine, Mister Epic.

ミスターエピック
Misutaa Epikku

Still SRT.

If I'm playing a Japanese game and it makes me write my name in Kana, though, I usually just do エッスアーティー (essuaatii) or some form of it based on character restrictions.

That's pretty close to what I would write.

エッサーチー
Essaachii

The ti pronounciation doesn't exist in the Japanese language. The character you used, テ, sounds like te.

Well, I know my real name in Japanese is something like
チェルシー
that... I think... I'm not really into the language so much, but I'd kill to learn it.

Your Katakana sounds like Chierushii.

Yeah, y'know, I've started learning Japanese through a book, but I got tired fast.

Also, I'll do your username.

ピーチー
Piichii

Fun fact: It's almost the same as Princess Peach.

It does, hence the ティー

You do the same with "spaghetti" in katakana
