HARUTAKE nameplates come in nine models and four wood species — Japanese zelkova, walnut, hard maple, and cherry. Even the same name looks quite different depending on the model and wood you choose. Enter your name in the simulator and compare a few combinations side by side.
The look of a nameplate depends on the combination of shape, wood species, typeface, and engraving finish — not any single factor alone. That makes it hard to form a clear mental image from small photos or someone else's example.
What would your name look like carved into a Japanese wood sign?
With HARUTAKE's Name to Kanji tool, you can find out in seconds — and engrave it directly onto your nameplate or luggage tag. Type your name, pick Kanji, Katakana, or Hiragana, and choose from 2, 3, or 4-character results, each with its pronunciation and meaning explained. No Japanese knowledge needed.
