That is specifically the title for the Prophet Isaiah, not you. razz Also, you probably pronounce your name "Aizeiya" (アイゼーヤ in katakana).

I don't even know what you're talking about; there's not a single Japanese-style word in there. There's no "fr" or "st" or "l" or "q" in Japanese, "c" can only be used as part of "ch", and all consonants/consonant clusters but "n" have to be followed by a vowel...

If you're trying to come up with Japanese versions for those names, try these:
Ki-Aura would be キーオーラ ("ki-o-ra" or "kiioora" or "kiioura") if you're just adapting the sound.
Shakti, looked up in my names dictionary, is シャクティー ("shakuti-" or "shakutii").
Ah-Moss is probably アーモッス ("a-mossu" or "aamossu").
Frazier is フラジャー ("furaja-" or "furajaa").
Lancaster is ランカスター ("rankasuta-" or "rankasutaa").

So you want your name to mean "a feast of poetry" or "a banquet of words" or something like that? There's a thread that I think is still on the first page where you can talk about (and get help with) coming up with good kanji for your name.

Do I need help with my name? Is it really that terrible? I like it, and it's not like I just trawled through my kanji dictionary putting together whatever. I discussed it with my Sensei when I was working on it a couple of years ago in kanji class, and she approves. My full name is 眼仁奈・詞宴, I know what all the characters mean...although I'm not sure I like having a three-character last name. I may talk to Sensei about picking a new one that doesn't follow my original (Spanish) last name so closely. I'm thinking 茨田 or 町田 or something.

Don't try to look your name up in a dictionary. You won't find very many. If you need help, tell us your name and we can help you change it to Japanese pronunciation and write it in katakana.

I don't mind if you don't mind; it's just that most people just type in their names and see what comes up. If you're happy with your selection, then that's fine. I was simply confirming that you knew what you'd chosen.

Heh, yup! smile

>.> I am seriously leaning towards changing the last name to 街田 (まちだ) , though. I can't decided between the uber-generic 町田, the also-generic 待田, or the slightly-less-generic 街田. Dilemma. XD
