Frazier in Japanese Katakana

Tips for writing Frazier in katakana

• ー is the long-vowel mark: it stretches the sound before it. In vertical writing it turns into a vertical line.
• Write the small ャ at about half size, in the lower left of the square (in horizontal writing). ジャ is one sound, ja.
• Japanese has a single sound for English L and R, so both are written with the ラ-row (ra, ri, ru, re, ro).
• Katakana is written left to right like English, or top to bottom in vertical text. Keep every character the same size except the small ones.

Frazier on Japanese forms

Example full name: John Frazier → ジョン・フレイジャー (Western order, names separated by ・).

Most Japanese forms put the family name first: フレイジャー ジョン. In a フリガナ (furigana) field write it in katakana; if the field says ふりがな use hiragana (ふれいじゃー じょん); some bank and card forms ask for half-width katakana (ﾌﾚｲｼﾞｬｰ ｼﾞｮﾝ).

Japan has no official katakana spelling for foreign names. Once you use a spelling for a bank account, phone contract or employer, keep using the same one so your records match.
