How to write Jayden in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Jayden becomes ジェイデン, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ジェ | je | two characters read as one sound |
| イ | i | |
| デ | de | |
| ン | n | n on its own |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ジェイデン・スミス for Jayden Smith.
