How does it change in a sentence?

When addressing or referring to Judy in a standard social context, the honorific suffix さん (san) is typically added to the name, resulting in ジュディさん.

The romanization is Judi.

While ジュディ is the phonetic transcription, some people named Judy choose custom kanji characters to write their name, giving it a unique Japanese meaning like 'beautiful' or 'gentle'.
If a Japanese person refers to someone as ジュディちゃん instead of ジュディさん, they are using a diminutive that implies the person is a child or a very close female friend.
The katakana script used to write ジュディ was specifically developed to transcribe foreign loanwords and names, distinguishing them from native Japanese words.
