Zelda (zel-dah)

Here we offer authentic Japanese Tattoo designs of the name Zelda by Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase.

Names are translated to Japanese by how they are pronounced, not by how they are spelled. So these designs are only correct when Zelda is pronounced zel-dah. That is, the name Zelda, when pronounced zel-dah, in Japanese katakana is ゼルダ with the romaji zeruda.

While the above katakana is the standard way that names are translated to Japanese, we also offer Zelda in hiragana which may be preferred when a more feminine tattoo design of Zelda is wanted. Zelda in hiragana is ぜるだ.

If you pronounce Zelda differently then often the Japanese translation will be different. Please let us know the pronunciation you use and we will add it.
