How to Say "Dennis" in Japanese

デニス

Denisu[de̞ɲ̟isɨ]

The Japanese way to say the male given name Dennis is デニス (Denisu).

Meaning: male given name (name)

How do you pronounce it?

The romanization is Denisu.

A person named Dennis might choose the kanji 天 (heaven) for the 'de' sound and 仁 (benevolence) for 'ni', transforming a phonetic name into a set of virtuous qualities.
Because the name デニス ends in a consonant sound in English, Japanese speakers often experience a 'phantom vowel' effect, where the final ス (su) is whispered so softly it almost disappears in natural conversation.
The mora デ (de) is actually a modified version of テ (te) with two small strokes called dakuten, which physically change the 't' sound into a 'd' sound.

ウィルソンさんはデニスに腹を立てている。
