How to write Everett in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Everett becomes エベレット, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| エ | e | |
| ベ | be | |
| レ | re | |
| ッ | – | small tsu: a short pause that doubles the next sound |
| ト | to |
You may also see Everett written エヴェレット (Everetto). Both are used; エベレット is the more common spelling.
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example エベレット・スミス for Everett Smith.
