2025 Trends: Top 5 Most Beloved Kanji Tattoos Worldwide

Hello from the KANJI de NAME team!
September has arrived, and in Japan, the beautiful season of “Momiji” (Autumn leaves) is approaching. In the spirit of this artistic season, we would like to introduce the latest trends in “Kanji you want to carve into your skin as art.”

Why Choose Kanji for Your Tattoo?

Kanji characters are more than just letters; they are symbols rich in meaning and history. However, choosing the wrong character can lead to permanent regret. Here are the Top 5 authentic choices, based on years of data and global trends.

The Top 5 Most Requested Kanji

👑 1. 愛 (Love / Ai)

This is the most requested Kanji across all eras. Along with “Family” and “Peace,” it is loved worldwide as a character representing universal values.

👑 2. 勇 (Courage / Yuu)

Symbolizing “Bravery” and “Heroism.” This powerful Kanji is often chosen to inspire oneself or as a testament to overcoming difficulties.

👑 3. 平 (Peace / Hei)

Meaning peace of mind or tranquility. Along with “和 (Harmony),” it is popular among those seeking spiritual stability.

👑 4. 美 (Beauty / Bi)

Expressing inner beauty and the beauty of nature. It is chosen by everyone who values aesthetics.

👑 5. 夢 (Dream / Yume)

Meaning “Dream” or “Vision.” It serves as a symbol for people moving forward toward their future goals.

💡 Pro Advice: Is that Kanji really correct?

Because a tattoo lasts a lifetime, please choose a design with “living lines” created by a calligrapher, rather than free fonts found on the internet.

Also, for those born in September, it is wonderful to incorporate seasonal Kanji such as “秋 (Autumn)” or “楓 (Maple)” into your name.
