Trisha in Japanese Katakana

Tips for writing Trisha in katakana

• Write the small ャ at about half size, in the lower left of the square (in horizontal writing). シャ is one sound, sha.
• シ (shi) and ツ (tsu) look alike. In シ the two short strokes are placed on the left and the long stroke sweeps upward; in ツ the short strokes stand at the top and the long stroke sweeps downward.
• 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.

Trisha on Japanese forms

Example full name: Trisha Smith → トリシャ・スミス (Western order, names separated by ・).

Most Japanese forms put the family name first: スミス トリシャ. In a フリガナ (furigana) field write it in katakana; if the field says ふりがな use hiragana (すみす とりしゃ); some bank and card forms ask for half-width katakana (ｽﾐｽ ﾄﾘｼｬ).

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.
