Ever wondered of how your name looks or pronounced in Japanese? If it's a yes then click here:
http://japanesetranslator.co.uk/your-name-in-japanese/
(please use the traditional style)
_ Meh English name is Raphael (This wasn't taken from Ralph in Balto III but was thought of randomly and is used by me now, my full name in English should be: Wolfgang Vanderford De Amedues Von Raphael [I have a habit of making up long names, quite fun actually]). SO, my Japanese name is:
_ It is pronounced "RAFAERU". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "A" sounds like a in father, but shorter. "U" sounds like oo in hook, but with less rounding of the lips. "E" sounds like e in met.)

Couldn't you tell Japanese names from English names? Clearly, "Kira" IS a Japanese name, it's just so Japanese-ish to be mistaken for English

Translated from Rusty, my name is RASUTII. Cool.
Interesting. I translated my friend's name and turns out that "Ben" is also Japanese. I've heard it from the character in Ginga and Weed but I thought he, and his owner, were from somewhere outside Japan.... also cool.

This is what the name "Daisy" looks like in Japanese:
It is pronounced "DEIJII". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "I" sounds like ee in meet, but shorter. "E" sounds like e in met. Double vowels like "II" are held for twice the duration of single vowels.)
Oh sweet! XD

It is pronounced "ARIERU". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "A" sounds like a in father, but shorter. "I" sounds like ee in meet, but shorter. "U" sounds like oo in hook, but with less rounding of the lips. "E" sounds like e in met.)
I rather like that. xD
And for all of you that are getting the "Image is no longer avalible" thing, it's because you need to upload the image to a host site.
