Design examples of cat-silhouette AI icons on wooden nameplates — a sitting cat, a walking cat, a cat's face, and a stretching cat, across different woods and engraving finishes.

An icon can serve as a quiet accent beside your name, or take center stage like a sign. Tap "+ Icon," type what you want in words, and AI generates the icon — you can place it anywhere and resize it freely.

Vertical or horizontal text? Where to place it, how much margin to leave? With the simulator, you can switch between text direction, position, and spacing right on screen to find the layout that feels right.

The same name can look very different depending on the typeface. In the simulator you can switch between typefaces and compare them side by side in the preview.

The name on your nameplate can be a family name only, a full name in roman letters, or two names for a multi-generational household. How it fits depends on the number of characters and lines — try entering your actual name in the simulator to see.

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.
