Names in Japanese - S

This list of names in Japanese represents over a decade of translation work by our team of native Japanese and English speaking staff.

With the information available today one can expect accurate name translations that can be readily verified. If you think about it, the Japanese media continuously translates the names of movie stars, celebrities, sports stars, and people in the news. So in composing this list we have used a wide variety of reference material as well as leading Japanese movie databases and Japanese entertainment magazines to provide the most accurate information available in a convenient and easy to use form.


Names are pronounced differently depending on where you are from and this may affect the translation. And so we have taken great care to include the original pronunciation so it is clear which we are translating. This is something other sites don't have and why we are one of the most trusted name translation sites on the Internet. If you need more information about a name simply click on the name below.
