February 28 Information
The name spelled in English is Byakuya Rinne. Rinne is the private name. Also how to spell "euphoria"? אילן שמעוני ( talk) 19:08, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Byakuya is 白哉, but Rinne can be written using kanji in many different ways. Check out the middle column on
this page. In hiragana it is りんね. Is this an existing person? It would help if you know the meaning of the given name (see
here). There is no /fo/ syllable in Japanese, but to spell foreign words they use フォ (see
O (kana)#Variant forms), so /juː.fo.ri.ja/ becomes ユーフォリア in katakana. --

- It's a character in a (very vicious) computer game that was made in Japan. I assumed there should be some common name to spell it in Kanji. Euphoria is probably in Hiragana or Katakana (I have no idea what are the differences between these two)
אילן שמעוני (
talk) 20:16, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Transliterations of foreign words and names are nowadays always written in katakana. -- Lambiam 20:39, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Being the character she is it may be 稟寧 or 琳音. I don't want to make a stupid mistake, though.
אילן שמעוני (
talk) 20:23, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Do you have the name of the game? None of the twelve ways to spell the name in kanji gives a ghit. But in the manga
境界のRINNE the word is spelled in romaji. --
Lambiam 20:25, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- The game's name is Euphoria. The game title screen contains what you said - you can see it
here
אילן שמעוני (
talk) 20:37, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Found it on the Japanese Wikipedia in their
euphoria (ゲーム) article: 白夜 凛音.
The same as the given name of the singer Rinne Yoshida,meaning "dignified sound". -- Lambiam 21:00, 28 February 2020 (UTC) - In the Wikipedia article the family name and given name are separated by a space, but in normal use no space would be inserted, giving 白夜凛音. --
