How It Works
Enter Your Name
Type your name in English. Our system analyzes the phonetic sounds.
Confirm the Sound
Kanji are chosen purely by sound, so this step matters most. Tap the speaker to hear it — if it doesn't sound like you, fix it by voice or typing.
Kanji Matching
Each syllable is matched with beautiful kanji characters that share the same sound.
Wear It, Hang It, Gift It
Pick the version you like, then put it on a shirt, a mug or a print — made and shipped worldwide by Zazzle.
What You Can Make
Your kanji goes onto real products, printed and shipped worldwide by Zazzle — the same design you generate here, on something you can actually hold.
Stickers, pillows, clocks and phone cases are in the shop too. Generating your name here is free — you only pay if you order something.
A Gift With Their Name
Type their name, pick the version whose meaning suits them, and send it straight to their door.
Enter their address at Zazzle checkout, and check the delivery estimate there. Questions? Read the FAQ
