How to write Lloyd in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Lloyd becomes ロイド, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ロ | ro | |
| イ | i | |
| ド | do |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ロイド・スミス for Lloyd Smith.
