Zelma (zel-mah)

Here we offer authentic Japanese Tattoo designs of the name Zelma 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 Zelma is pronounced zel-mah. That is, the name Zelma, when pronounced zel-mah, in Japanese katakana is ゼルマ with the romaji zeruma.

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

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

A famous person using this exact same translation is Zelma Vas Dias (ゼルマ・ヴァス・). Also, the popular Japanese site Movie Walker shows celebrities named Zelma that use this translation.
