Is 恵衣武良波夢 suitable for a tattoo?

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

What does 恵衣武良波夢 mean?

Character by character, 恵衣武良波夢 reads 恵 ("blessing", read as "e"), 衣 ("garment", read as "i"), 武 ("warrior", read as "bu"), 良 ("goodness", read as "ra"), 波 ("wave", read as "ha"), 夢 ("dream", read as "mu"). Together they sound like "Abraham" while carrying the meanings blessing · garment · warrior · goodness · wave · dream.

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.
