How to write Keegan in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Keegan becomes キーガン, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| キ | ki | |
| ー | – | long vowel mark: hold the sound before it a little longer |
| ガ | ga | |
| 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 キーガン・スミス for Keegan Smith.
