Questions about Aaron in kanji

Is 愛論 suitable for a tattoo?

It can be a starting point for a tattoo design. Because tattoos are permanent, we recommend having both the katakana (アロン) and the kanji checked by a native Japanese speaker before committing.

What does 愛論 mean?

Character by character, 愛論 reads 愛 ("love", read as "a"), 論 ("philosophy", read as "ron"). Together they sound like "Aaron" while carrying the meanings love · philosophy.

Why does Japanese have so many kinds of writing?

Japanese uses four scripts side by side: kanji for meaning, hiragana and katakana for sound, and rōmaji for the Latin alphabet. A Japanese person writing a foreign name by ear reaches for katakana, which records the sound but carries no meaning — kanji is the meaning-based art form this site uses instead, in the ateji (当て字) tradition.

Is this how a Japanese person would write my name?

No — in everyday Japan, foreign names are written in katakana, which is why it's shown beneath every artwork here. The kanji version is ateji (当て字): an artistic portrait of a name chosen for sound and meaning, not an official translation, so anything permanent should be checked by a native speaker first.
