How to Say "Pablo" in Japanese

パブロ

Paburo

パブロ (Paburo) is the Japanese way to say the male given name of Spanish origin, Pablo.

How do you pronounce it?

Paburo

Because Japanese does not use spaces, a middle dot called a 中黒 is placed between パブロ and a surname to show where one name ends and the next begins.
If a Japanese person were to write パブロ using Kanji to make it look like a traditional name, they would have to choose characters based on sound rather than the original meaning of 'small'.
A Japanese speaker might add the honorific さん to the end, calling someone パブロさん, even if the person is not Japanese.
