Malligraphy (Calligraphy workshop studio Kyoto) Session C,The most popular request is to write a name in Kanji charactors.So I would like to introduce you to the naming culture of Japan.
This picture on left was written at Jennifer's request.
慈(A heart that loves the weak, such as children)＝”J”
恵(Blessing)＝”e"
仁(Compassion)＝”nni"
富(Wealth)＝”ｆ”
愛(Love)＝"er"
In this way, when I received the request,I used Kanji with positive meanings.
In Japan, we give children names with good meanings in Kanji,hoping that their lives will be bright and prosperous.Each Kanji has a meaning.So writing your name in Kanji is meaningful.
