Sawatdee krap :) I'm visiting Chiang Rai for the second time in November and would like to have my girlfriend's name translated into Thai transcrit for a tattoo. I realise it'll be a phonetic translation so as close as possible would be such a great help. My tirak is very special and she is very suay suay in my eyes. her name is Bev-er-ley. I've checked on the 'English names in Thai' W.A.T. website but to no avail. Kop-khun-krap. Stephen.
Ask her to sms in her Thai script and make sure your phone can display Thai. And the name Beverly does not sound right I suggest you ask her for her traditional Thai name. Alot of girls opt for nicknames. My girlfriends nickname is Kee but her true name is Farung which is totally different when scripted in her language. So I suggest if you r getting a tattoo make sure you get the correct name. If she can email her name or copy her ID card and send. Not the answer u r after but a good starting ground.
Sorry, I think you've misunderstood me. I'm a frequent visitor to Thailand but my girlfriend is English. Was just trying to phonetically translate her name into Thai for a tattoo. Her name is Beverley. Much appreciated.
