Japanese Name Jewelry
Your name in Hiragana, Katakana or Kanji, your choice.
Gemiria crafts Japanese names in Hiragana, Katakana or Kanji, and you pick which of the three before you order. Necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings, up to 8 characters on necklaces and bracelets, four finishes.
What can I choose from here?
Every piece here is made in Japanese. If one name in the family is Japanese and another is written in Latin or another alphabet, our multiple name jewelry lets each name keep its own script on the same piece.

Hiragana, Katakana or Kanji?
You choose, and the limit is up to 8 characters on necklaces and bracelets, 6 on rings and earrings.
- Katakana. The standard way a foreign name is written in Japanese.
- Hiragana. Softer in shape, usually used for Japanese given names.
- Kanji. The shortest piece of the three. A Japanese name keeps its own Kanji; a Western name is reimagined in Kanji by its sound, so each character brings a meaning of its own rather than translating yours.
When is one of these the right gift?
- A gift between siblings, the same name in the same script, worn on two wrists
- A partner learning Japanese, their name in the alphabet they have been practicing every night
- Something worn every day, quiet, and unmistakably yours to anyone who can read it
- A name written properly at last, in its own alphabet, not romanized into something it never was
- A gift for a grandmother or a mother, who still writes her name the way she was taught
- A graduation or a homecoming, for someone building a life in a second language
- A wedding or an engagement, a new name in the script the family has always used
