How to write Willa in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Willa becomes ウィラ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ウィ | wi | two characters read as one sound |
| ラ | ra |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ウィラ・スミス for Willa Smith.
