Did you know?

  • In Japanese pop culture, the name アレハンドロ is strongly associated with the song 'Alejandro' by Lady Gaga, which helped familiarize the phonetic string to non-Spanish speakers.
  • In a Japanese context, if you see the name written as アレハンドロ in a manga, it is a visual signal to the reader that the character is a foreigner.
  • Japanese phonetics cannot replicate the silent 'h' in the Spanish pronunciation of Alejandro, so the ハ (ha) is clearly pronounced in アレハンドロ.
