How to write Makayla in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Makayla becomes マケイラ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| マ | ma | |
| ケ | ke | |
| イ | i | |
| ラ | ra |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example マケイラ・スミス for Makayla Smith.
