Our names are shown in English, Romaji, Hirigana, Katakana, Kanji, and the basis for the Kanji symbols that were chosen by the translator. On the right is my Hanko, or stamp. Hanko are still used for signature on formal documents by everyday Japanese people. Mine is a combination Kanji / Katakana translation that is based on sound as well as meaning for Frank. The name Milburn (Mill Stream) can be translated as Usugawa in Japanese.
