- Japanese names are usually written with kanji, but foreign names like ノーラン must use the katakana script, which is used specifically for loanwords and foreign names.
- In Japan, it is common to add the suffix さん after a name, so nolan would typically be addressed as ノーランさん to be polite.
- When writing ノーラン vertically, the long vowel mark ー rotates 90 degrees to become a vertical line.
