Hi, I'm trying to learn to write my name in kanji. I found a site once that had information on this, and found a translation of my name (Jacob) that I liked. For some reason the site said Jacob means "may God protect", while in reality it means "he who grabs by the heel". Never the less, I am trying to take what I can get. Here is the kanji:
It is supposed to mean "benevolence which cures, protects, and helps = may God protect". However, I do not know how to pronounce this. If I could type it, I could know, but I can figure out a couple of the characters. I don't even know if it's supposed to be said as "Jeikobu", or "Yakobu". I remember my sensei telling me she didn't think there were any kanji for "jei", and so it would be better to use "Yakobu". Still, the site I found (can't remember the link now) literally said "ジェイコブ / じぇいこぶ" (Jeikobu (in katakana and hiragana)).
Can anyone help me learn how to read this?
