- Foreign names like サルバドール are sometimes assigned 'ateji', which are kanji characters chosen for their sound. This allows a non-Japanese name to be written in the traditional character script, though it is rare for modern names.
- Because サルバドール is written in katakana, it is visually distinct from native Japanese names. This tells a reader instantly that the person is likely a foreigner or has a non-Japanese background.
