- If a person named Logan were to use Kanji to write their name, they would have to choose characters based purely on sound, as there is no single 'Logan' character. This process is called 'ateji' and can transform a simple name into a complex set of meaningful symbols.
- Japanese people may struggle to distinguish ローガン from names starting with 'R', meaning a Logan and a Rogan would be identical in both writing and speech.
